“Ferenc! Ferenc!” Hendrik called, chasing after me.

Running, he caught me quickly, his hand on my shoulder to

stop me. “Please! Let me explain!”

“Explain!” I roared. “What is there to explain? This—

this—” But I had no words to describe the situation, or how I

felt. “You could not have mentioned this sooner?” I finally

said, my voice a hoarse whimper of hurt and pain.

“Ferenc, please,” Hendrik said. He placed his forehead

against mine. How I wanted to push him off, push him away

from me. But I was powerless to resist him, even in that

moment. “You must understand. This is not of my choosing.”

“Then end it,” I said. “Tell your father you will not do it.

Marry someone else.” I paused, panting to catch my breath.

“Anyone else. Please.”

“I wish there were some other way,” Hendrik said. “But

what happened with Andros, my dancer…. He boasted of his

newfound fortune. Many people heard the tale. Everyone

whispered of it. It was a scandal throughout the city. Even

with my father’s wealth, no well-regarded young woman

would ever think of marrying me.”

I fell to my knees. I could not hear this. I did not want to

hear this. Hendrik dropped to his knees beside me.

“That is why my father wrote to your family in the first

place. To see if there were any eligible daughters. In his

mind, as distant relations, your line would prove respectable

enough to wed into the family. And out here, no one would

know of—of what I had done.”

“No one would know,” I repeated. “But I would know,

Hendrik. I would know!”
