February 13th, 1924, London, England
Tumblr media
Multiple friends had wanted to throw a large birthday party, but Byron had refused. 29 wasn’t a special age, and in truth, he did not want another reminder that he was entering the last of his twenties. Instead, he selected a restaurant he knew Montgomery would complain about and invited the Misses Balass and Patel for additional company.
“I am unsure if Samira will come,” Byron mused over a glass of wine. “When I telegrammed her last, she was still in India and said she would not return until the middle of the month.”
Montgomery frowned. “I hope yer wrong.”
“You like her then?”
He nodded. 
Eleroa sighed. “Well, I hate to break it to you, but she won’t be in England until the end of the month. She wants to spend some time with a cousin in Hungary.”
Tumblr media
As they ate, a new dilemma reached the back of Byron’s mind: Who was he going home with? Perhaps it was a selfish desire, but he thought he was allowed to feel as such. It was his birthday, after all. 
“Does yer father know that ya eat pork?” Montgomery asked Eleora, eyeing the Beef Wellington on her plate. 
“Do your socialist and communist friends know you spend most of your free time with a duke?”
Byron snorted. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The Scot pushed up his glasses and stood. “If you’ll excuse me, I need to clean me glasses.”
“Is that just a polite way to say you need to use the loo?”
He blushed but did not answer, walking away.
Eleora shook her head, turning her head back to Byron. “I’ve been trying to get into that doctor’s trousers ever since my family began to see him.”
If he had been drinking, he was sure he would have choked. “Eleora!”
“What? Don’t tell me you don’t think him handsome. At first, I thought he was still in mourning over his wife, but now, I think he unfortunately must have some moral qualms about sleeping with patients. Or he’s fearful of my father. Likely both.”
“He is you and your father’s doctor. It’s a place of power that can be abused easily.”
“That makes it more fun,” She laughed, leaning forward. “You’re much closer than widowed in-laws I think would be. Is there something else? I certainly wouldn’t blame you.”
If it were anyone else, Byron would have froze with fear and adamantly denied it. “I can never understand how you read me so well.”
She shrugged. “I have intuition. …Actually, I saw you two kissing rather passionately at the last party we went to.”
Tumblr media
“I see. Perhaps I should have said something prior.”
“It’s alright. You’re the not only one who enjoys the company of the same sex.” Eleora lowered her voice. “Samira and I sometimes lay together. She prefers women, so her current infatuation with Montgomery has been most amusing to me. And makes me rather jaundiced and want to fuck him more.”
Byron smirked. “Well, he’s very talented with his hands,” he whispered, leaning forward so only she would hear his words, “and his tongue.”
Eleora laughed and playfully pushed him away. “You shouldn’t make me think of that in a public place, Byron.”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“Think of what?” Montgomery asked, returning to the table.
Eleora suddenly sighed and held her hand to her head. “Oh, doctor, I do think I coming down with a most tremendous headache. It is much too loud here.”
The amused look on his face turned into one of concern and professionalism. Gone was Montgomery, and here was Dr. MacGregor. “Yer apartment is not far from here, aye? I’ll make ya specific tea and see what else ya’ve got.”
“I’ll foot the bill,” Byron muttered, wondering what the woman had planned.

January 1924, London, England
Tumblr media
When Francesca had discovered Giselle unconscious early the next morning after realizing she’d never come to bed, she’d screamed so loud that it woke up their neighbors. Perhaps it was a testament to her love of her daughter, but when Francesca had phoned Rebecca, she’d arrived in London on the same day, having left Newcrest almost immediately. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Rebecca had lamented about not knowing how to contact Byron, for she had not a clue where he was in London since his servants had said that he was not in Henford, so when Rebecca was looking after Giselle, she’d called Montgomery’s, and unsurprisingly, found the duo were in bed when she had called. 
“Is she alright?” Byron demanded the moment he entered their apartment. “Mama?”
Rebecca gasped and hugged her son. “Oh my lord, I was so worried we wouldn’t get a hold of you.”
Montgomery entered with a sad smile. “Then perhaps it was a good thing we were havin’ supper at me house.”
Rebecca stared in shock. “My word, Montgomery! Is it really you? You look well, dear.”
“It’s lovely to see ya, Rebecca.” He frowned. “I’m sorry I havena been a very good son-in-law.” He glanced at Francesca. “How is she? Has a doctor come?”
She nodded. “Yes. When she wakes, she’ll be fine, but the workload must decrease if she doesn’t want to risk a heart attack in her twenties.”
“Would ya like me to check anyway? I brought me bag.”
“Yes, please.” She nodded. “Thank you, Montgomery.”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The pair went up the stairs, leaving the mother and son alone. A feeling of guilt arose in Byron. He’d not seen his mother since Easter. He also hadn’t told her of his renewed friendship with Scotsman. 
“Are you well, Mama? I know this has been a great shock.”
“I am better than I was yesterday. Giselle will be alright, and that is all that matters to me.” She turned to face him. “Why did you never tell me about your renewed relationship with Montgomery? I don’t think I would have recognized him if he hadn’t spoken. He looks better than the last I saw him.”
“We ran into each other at a party in the summer. He spent the last four years traveling the world and only returned to Great Britain last spring. …I’m sorry I didn’t come home for Christmas. I’ve… been seeing someone new. It…. isn’t official, but I think I would like it to be. But I am content for now.”
“You spent Christmas with a woman whom you are not officially courting?”
“She’s Jewish,” he replied, semi-joking.
Rebecca stared blankly, and Byron wasn’t sure if she was disappointed, upset, or both.

Being a well-known fashion designer had its perks… and its downsides. She was only one woman, after all, expected to do the work meant for at least four. Sure, they had hired other seamstresses and the like, but at the end of the day, Giselle felt it was her doing all the work, doing last-minute stitches, changing one thing over another. She stayed all hours of the night until she was satisfied. It had to be perfect. It needed to be perfect.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Francesca tried to tell her to calm down before she overworked herself, citing her health issues with her heart, but Giselle always shook her off. Her heart hadn’t been a problem in over a decade. It wouldn’t start a problem now, she always answered. 
Perhaps it was those famous last words that cursed her. It was a new collection, and she hadn’t slept in two days, trying to hurry to the deadline. Her heart beat faster and faster as she tried to add final touches until there was a great pain in her chest, and she gasped, clutching at her body until she collapsed.

December 1923, Henford-on-Bagley, England
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“Do you paint every lover you take?”
Eleora looked up from the canvas. “Only the good-looking ones.”
He chuckled. “I wonder what my mother would think of me, dressed in a toga, being painted by a woman in her undergarments.”
“I suppose it would depend on how often you do this.”
He smiled and shook his head. “...I feel as if I’ve known you my whole life, and not a few months. I’ve… never felt this way about anyone before.”
Tumblr media
The statement made Eleora stop. Setting down her paints and brushes, she stared at the duke. “Anyone?”
He sat up. “I’m mad for you,” he confessed, unsure why he was telling her this.
“Not even your former wife?”
“No. I don’t think I ever felt such passion for Stella.”
Eleora sighed. “You can’t say such things, Byron.”
“Why not?”
“Because my father would never let me marry a divorced man or a gentile.”
Byron took her hand and embraced her back. “But what about your feelings and desires?”
She looked down. “Is my presence here not evidence enough? I feel as if I am rushing into something so fast I can barely make heads or tails of it. I’ve only known you almost three months, and yet…”
“You can’t deny the passion,” he finished quietly. 
Eleora nodded with a sad smile.

November 1923, Henford-on-Bagley, England
Tumblr media Tumblr media
He was infatuated with the Balass girl. It’d become almost obsessive since their meeting three weeks prior. While he was busy with his duties as a duke, he’d spend almost every other moment writing her letters, talking on the phone, sending telegrams, etc. He admired her wit and charm, but better yet, her humor and knowledge. Eleora Balass was everything he liked about women and more. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Of course, the only problem was that he was in Henford and she in London, and he couldn’t leave for the winter. He wanted nothing more than to see her again, to hold her body while she made fun of him for sentimental. 
So, when Byron came home on a walk to see a familiar-looking woman in his drawing room, he couldn't help but smirk.

Miss Balass in her London flat, 1923, 23 years old
~
Eleora Balass is the sole daughter of Salim and Miriam Balass and a member of the Baghdadi Jewish Balass family, often nicknamed the "Rothchilds of the East" due to their vast wealth and influence. Her great-grandfather moved their family from Baghdad to Bombay to escape the persecution of Ottoman rule, taking control of the cotton trade in India, and her father later moved their family seat to London in the 1880s. Eleora is a portrait painter and was the first woman of Jewish and Middle-Eastern descent to attend the prestigious Royal Academy of Arts. Taking advantage of her family status, Eleora uses her connections for her political beliefs, being a staunch believer in women's rights, religious rights, and anti-imperialism. However, she can be more often found at a libertine party or her flat than in Parliament. Her bisexuality is more or less an open secret, though her parents pretend they are not aware of their daughter's proclivities.
