Tehr returned home and made a stop in the kitchen first.  Finding Angelique there he smiled and handed her the pie, carefully wrapped in brown paper.<strong>"My dearest Angelique, would you please set this somewhere safe, and leave a note card on it that it is for Lady d'Caelor?  Thank you my darling."</strong>Giving her a slight bow he went on to his personal library / office and drew out a sheet of fine paper and good ink.  Sitting down he thought about what to write, and set the livewood necklace to give him a bit of inspiration.  Finally he dipped the pen in ink and began writing.<br/><br/><em><strong>"Rosalyn,"</strong></em>the note began simply.  He felt that he had certainly earned the right to address her on such a personal and informal level, especially since he'd seen signs of her own attraction.  Then skipping to a new line, he began his note in earnest.<br/><br/><em><strong>"I find myself regretting my lack of willpower this morning during the rite you sought to share with me.  I invited you and your father into your home, partially to save you from the lecherous ways of the humans of this city.  But I admit, I find that your beauty overpowered my sense, and I was not able to resist drawing you into my arms for a kiss.  I think we both are aware of how our bodies, certainly mine at the least, craved more than just that kiss.  But I would see no shame brought to you,  your house, or the promise of safety i have extended to you.  I admit a deep lust and longing when I think of you, but I know that you have seen me at my most carnal now.  Along with the rumors and actions you've seen in me these last few months, I'm sure you realize that I am a man driven by my lusts.  Even as I write this, I can not help but long for the vision of your body that still haunts me.  I desire to discuss with you in a more calm and rational setting where we might go from here.  My greatest fear is to lose you from my life, even as nothing more than a friend.  But so too, do I fear moving forwards without our relationship to each other being on a solid footing.  As such I would like to invite you to high tea in an hours time in the living room, just the two of us, to discuss the future and what it might hold.<br/><br/>By way of apology for my lack of willpower, I send along this bauble of livewood and labrodite, symbolizing the rebirth of spring and the hope of forgiveness for any shame either of us might feel.  While it is a small trinket, I hope you enjoy it.  Likewise there is a small desert freshly baked for your enjoyment in the kitchen, and I hope that you take these small gestures in the vein they are intended.<br/><br/>If you do not wish to see me, I understand, and will leave the next move to you, but I pray that it is a positive one, for I shudder to think that my slip up caused you any distress.<br/><br/>Your friend, steadfast ally, and devoted admirer,<br/><br/>~Tehr"</strong></em><br/><br/>Then he sprinkled fine sand on the page to dry the ink and re read it inspecting it for flaws.  Finding it satisfactory, he folded it, with the necklace inside and sealed it with a bit of hot wax.   Then ringing a bell for a servant, he would direct them to deliver the message to Lady Rosalyn while he waited for high tea in the living room.
