"Pity me, my friend," William mocked. "She nags me already."

"A womanly trait. She nags you because she loves you." Nicholas glanced away from Saura's marvelous face to see William stir uncomfortably. "But forgive her, for you'll never cure a beauty as great as hers."

William stared down at his hands, clenched in fists on the table. She was beauty, pure beauty. She transformed ordinary men into towering heroes, and she never realized how the look of her called forth chivalry in the roughest peasants. He wondered if he would ever cease to marvel when he saw that Madonna face lit by her unwavering courage. He looked up at her, and he was caught again. Had he really had her? Had he really brought her to an amorous lassitude? She looked so innocent, so untouched, like a child, like a woman.

She trusted him implicitly, believed everything he said to her. Yet he had portrayed a false confidence to her. Whoever had tried to kill them would be at the wedding. He could take care of himself, but she was a woman, fragile, delicate, and he knew a sense of possessiveness he'd never dreamed of. His own well-being was never in doubt, but this villain would know she constituted his weak spot. The thought of Saura, kidnapped, alone, blind, afraid, made him sweat and fear as no other threat could. He would keep her safe, he resolved. Somehow he would keep her safe.
