She smiles at him. "I see...well alright. If your sure the baby will not be harmed...I shall believe your word. As I see you have no need to be lying to me." she says with a warm happy look on her face. "I will fear no further of the childs welfare." she adds. She felt a bit evnious for a moment that the Duchess would be able to dance with her beloved. But it was gone as quickly as it had come. She wasn't a naturally jealous person and therefore never remained as such very long. She looks at the Duke. "So as I hear you have some stories you would be willing to share with me?" she asks in a polite and hopeful way. She loved hearing stories about the outside world. Whether they be true or not. A good story was a story nonetheless. She listens to his stories. Asking questions when appropriate. Smiling when it was required or warrented. All in all she was genuinely interested in the Duke's stories.
