LUCIAN HAD FOUND HER. He’d almost given up and figured they’d both be sailing to America. Admittedly, a part of him had almost hoped for it. They could spend the week trapped together on that ship and find some sort of compromise. He could have seduced her… Oh, how he wanted to seduce her… But then he’d spotted her walking across the deck, and he’d squashed the mental images of her naked and writhing in his arms. Normally seeing her would intensify them, but his other emotions took over in this one moment. He needed her with him and the rest could wait.

They reached his carriage and he managed to open the door without setting her down. He really didn’t trust her to not run off on him. He’d chase after her of course, but why expend the breath when he didn’t have to? Lucian set her down inside the carriage, then joined her and closed the door behind him. He rapped the top of the coach, and the driver set the horses in motion.

Lucian breathed a sigh of relief now that he had her safely ensconced. He met her gaze and asked, “What were you thinking? You should not have even considered traveling such a distance on your own. Anything could have happened. What if someone had kidnapped you?”

“Someone did,” she replied with a hint of amusement in her voice. He opened his mouth and closed it. The muscles in his cheek twitched. Damn her. She was goading him… “Grabbed me right off the deck and carried me away. Never would have imagined it could happen. Thanks for enlightening me.”

Lucian swallowed hard. She made light of it, but the very idea of losing her terrified him. What if she’d been successful and he’d never found her? He couldn’t handle it. For the first time in his life, he understood what his father must have gone through when his mother ran off. He must have died inside when he thought she’d perished at sea. Lucian never wanted to feel such despair. He adored his parents and had humored them when they’d been overprotective in his formative years. Now though, he’d make sure to hug them and apologize for his condescending attitude. “If it makes you consider your actions in the future—it was my pleasure.”

“I’m sure it was.” The corners of her lips twitched upward. “But if it’s all the same to you, I’ll be glad to leave the confines your company and find refuge in my chambers at home.”

He lifted his lips into a smile. She hadn’t realized it yet, but she was not returning to the Marsden townhouse. If she wanted to run away, they’d do it his way. They were not going to remain in London for long. They'd go on an entirely different venture instead. One that she wouldn’t be able to escape from… He’d carry her through the whole journey if necessary. “You’re not enjoying my company?”

“It’s been known to be tedious and condescending,” she quipped. “Most of the time completely intolerable.
