A feeling that something wasn’t right nagged at Francesca as she was led away from the Hall of Infinite Wisdom in the sedan chair. But, since everything the Lintianese people did took a long time and was surrounded by endless tradition and ceremony, she decided she was just on edge. Lying in Jin’s bed all night, surrounded by his smell as she fought the longing in her body, had left her tired. Not to mention the morning run and Fen’s insistent pampering.

In the hall, he’d looked like his brothers, only he stood out because of the dark red of his gown compared to their black. No, it was more than his clothing. He stood out because he made her heart beat faster when she looked at him. The clothing was like a tease, a seduction of her senses as she imagined slowly undressing him for her pleasure. The fact that everything was soft and silky to the touch only made the sensations all the more erotic. His hard-muscled skin would be so firm against the material of their clothing. When they had sex partially dressed, the combination of hard and soft had been extremely fascinating and arousing.

Francesca closed her eyes and leaned her head back against the sedan, doing her best to ignore the fact that she was aroused to such a fiery extent from thoughts of Jin. The ride was smooth, like she rode on a cloud. Hearing a cough outside, she pulled back the silk and peeked out the window. A procession of all the noble witnesses from the Hall of Infinite Wisdom followed her.

Great, it’s a parade. The voice in her head was heavy with sarcasm. She sat back down and sighed heavily. Just put up with it. Soon this will be over. I’ll be ‘officially’ engaged to Jin. Their guard will drop and I will get what I came for. This will all be over soon.

Francesca hummed an absentminded tune. She looked at the shoes on her lap, already regretting that she’d promised to put the torture devices back on. The platforms rested on the red lace veil. Not knowing why she bothered to keep her promise, she slipped the platforms back onto her feet. They were uncomfortable, making her taller, even as they caused her to teeter back and forth since the platform was centered under the middle of the foot and not under the toe and heel.

Jin owes me for this one, she thought, eyeing the shoes.

The sedan stopped and she again looked out the window. She was in front of the Exalted Hall. The two doors with the protective gods were opened, held so by a serving man on each side. Francesca didn’t move. What were they doing before the Exalted Hall? Could it be? A wedding? No, Fen had said it was just an apology. The woman wouldn’t have been able to deceive her.

“Francesca?”

Francesca yelped at the sound of Jin’s soft voice and jerked back in her seat. Her heart beat hard in her chest and she couldn’t speak.
