I FELL INTO HIS TRAP
"That's a massive leap. Usually, it goes captive, servant, despised acquaintance, seduced lover-"
"Those all sound great," he cut me off, "but I've had four months" His eyes darkened as if the time had been worse than prison "To think about this, and I know what I want."
"And you want a real wife," I said slowly.
"I could buy a wife from a catalog if I wanted to," he returned harshly. "I want you. And if I can't have you as my captive, I want the next best thing."
A laugh lifted in my throat. "I'm already your wife, remember?" I said as if I understood his frame of mind.
