What the Duchess Wants. Terri Brisbin
With a nod to Louis, Eleanor found her maidservant and ladies waiting for her in the corridor and sought out her chambers.
Later that night, after sending the women away and discussing the day with her trusted advisor, Eleanor decided to enter into private communications with the Angevins.
