Sizemore, Susan - After the Storm

So, she was trying to escape from Rolf of Gesthowe. He didn't blame her, but the fool woman would never make it far on her own. Rolf would find her, drag her back and then there'd be hell to pay. He had come to help her, but the impulse was trampled by her harsh words. She probably deserved whatever Gesthowe did to her, but he knew he couldn't allow anyone to mistreat her. Unless, of course, he was the one who did the mistreating. He smiled coldly at that thought.

Let her fear him. She deserved to learn a few lessons in humility.

And while she learned, he could get her safely away from the real danger that threatened her. Not that he would let her know he was helping her. She'd think she had some power over him then. She'd try to use him, and he wouldn't allow that. No, he would take her into the forest, keep her for himself, and somehow she would repay him for all he'd lost at Lilydrake. She'd be his and no one else's.

Again, it would not do to tell her so.

He grabbed her by the arms again. "I'll go," he told her, "and you'll come with me." He held her fast when she tried to pull away this time. "No more games, no weakness. You're my prisoner, Isabeau of Lilydrake, until I ransom you back to your rightful lord."
