The Duke And I
"How refreshing, from a man who doesn't take the time to pay attention to it."
Eastland's paper lowered. "Are you saying that I only want honesty on certain occasions?"
"Very perceptive of you, your grace."
"I do believe that you feel safe now that your secret is out," the Duke said after a moment. "I've never believed in hitting a female, but in your case, I might be persuaded to make an exception."
"It never occurred to me that you wouldn't do exactly what you desired," Cassy said, fighting against a distressing glut of tears that threatened to ruin her brave facade. Why was she so teary? And why this rush of emotion now, for heaven's sake?
