On the ride home to Broadmayne, Finlay quickly surmised something was bothering his wife. She was unusually quiet and, when he asked her if she was feeling well, she tilted her chin a little and assured him she was fine. But he knew her too well – something was on her mind and he was determined to find out what it was.

He waited patiently until they were both in bed, and when Louisa rolled over on her side, presenting him with her back, he quickly turned her to face him. He pushed an errant strand of hair from her face and ran a finger down her cheek to rest on her lower lip.

"What troubles you, m'dear?" She went to speak and he stopped her. "And do not tell me it is nothing, for I know you are worried about something."

He watched a range of emotions cross her face before she blurted out, "Who is Mrs. Francis?"

He masked his reaction quickly. How the devil had she found out so soon? He had no desire for her to know the true meaning of his meeting with Selena Francis until he had verified his sister's innocence or guilt. If Louisa knew then she might tell Millicent and his reason for hiring the woman in the first place would be pointless.

He smiled warmly down at Louisa and replied, "She is a family friend. I met with her, recently. She is having monetary problems and I have agreed to help a little."

Which was true. He was giving her money. He just wasn't telling Louisa the whole truth.

Louisa frowned. "It is rumoured she killed her husband – is that true, Finlay? Should you not be careful around such a woman? What if she thinks to do the same to you?"

Finlay laughed at her serious little face. "Louisa, I can assure you she has killed no one. Her husband was old and died of natural causes, I can assure you. Who is vilifying her like this? To whom have you been speaking?"

"Hortense Bellamy saw you together at Brook inn. She thinks you are having an affair."

He raised his eyebrows at that remark. "Does she now? And what do you think, sweetest Louisa?"

He watched as she lowered her eyes, the long lashes fanning her blushing cheeks. "I do not know. Are you?" Her eyes flashed back to his, and in their depths, he saw the fiery sparkle of jealousy.

"Why would I have an affair when all I desire is here in my arms?" He saw her face soften and continued, "You have no reason to ever be jealous, my love. I will never give you cause."

His lips claimed hers and she yielded to him, her lush lips opening to receive his probing tongue.

He moved lower, his lips on her neck, nuzzling the exposed skin. Louisa gasped softly when his hand slid beneath her nightgown, tracing her soft thighs and the curve of her hip.

When his hand dipped between her thighs, she parted them willingly, aching to feel his loving touch.
