George cursed himself as a fool. He should not have climbed the tree after Kitty last night, but she had seen him standing out on the street. And then he had gone and made her think that he had been unfaithful to her. And watching the way her beautiful, proud face had shuddered against the force of that had been... She cared. She cared whether or not he was unfaithful.

Hell, he cared too.

He would take her as his wife soon enough, but he felt...on edge. She was an innocent.

He did not want her to be afraid when he took her to bed. He did not wish...

It is the ferocity of what you feel for her that holds you back, and you well know it. You bloody coward.

He did not like it. When he had kissed her in the carriage on their wedding day, it had been an attempt at seizing control.

And yet he had not found it. Not then.

Instead, he had found himself caught up in her. In his need for her.

He could not touch her. Not as he was.

He felt... He did not feel as if he could trust himself.

And yet she pushed him. To the brink, and she had no idea. He wished to part her legs and feast upon her. That desire that had seized him in the study had not been for Helene. He knew that. For it was the touch of his hand to her thigh that had ignited his need.

And that had been Kitty. Purely Kitty.

He had had any number of lovers, all experienced, and all immaterial.

Kitty was not immaterial. She was his wife.

And last night when he’d spoken to her he’d felt so close to being understood. It was the damnedest thing, and at the same time he’d known...

He could not tell her his true aim. If anyone found out what he was about, everyone in his life would be in danger.

And Kitty...

Kitty spoke from her heart. With conviction at all times. She could get herself killed if she knew too much.
