Kate’s fear made her feel ill. “Do you honestly think you’ll get away with something so vile?” she asked as she backed away from him, toward the hallway door.

Fleming’s cold smile disappeared. “No one will believe the word of a whore,” he said, and suddenly lunged for her, grabbing her hair when she whirled and tried to run.

“You seem to forget, madam, that I have the power to put your wards out on their arses by morning.”

He wrapped her hair around his fist and yanked it hard. “And I can put you on yours, here and now.”

Kate’s blood ran cold. She tried to pull away from him, but he yanked her hair again, causing her to gasp with pain. “I shall tell the duke!” she cried.

“Tell him,” Fleming snarled. “Likely he will hold you responsible for not having safeguarded your body for him, aye? You will lose all this ,” he said, gesturing with one hand while yanking her hair with the other.

Kate swung with her elbow, connecting with the soft part of Fleming’s belly. He grunted, yanked her hair harder, and pulled her head back. He leaned over, so that she could see the harsh expression on his face. “Think of what you are doing, woman,” he said hotly. “I will take my pleasure whether or not you take yours.”

That sickened her; her mind swam back to another bitterly cold and dark night.

“Be a love now, and don’t fight me.”
