Maddie could only gape at her stowaway for a moment. “I suppose I can’t toss you out.” No matter how much she would like to.

The blonde had shared Wes’ bed. Her Wes. It made no difference that he hadn’t been her Wes whenever the interlude or interludes had taken place. He was her Wes now. Though she wasn’t certain when that had happened. Perhaps when she’d decided to leap out that inn window and run away with him. And this is how he thanked her? By cavorting with this Lucy Reed person before Maddie even knew she wanted him? She realized how ridiculous her thoughts would sound aloud and was glad she didn’t have to mutter them to anyone who would think she had gone mad.

“You could try.” Lucy Reed shrugged. “But where would be the fun in that?”

Fun? Maddie somehow managed not to choke on a sob. But she refused to let the blonde see her at her worst. So she straightened her back and glared at the other woman.

“I know who you are, you know?” Lucy shook her skirts out, making dust float in the streaks of sunlight that filtered through the window. “You went to The Taming of the Shrew this last Season.”

Maddie coughed and swiped at a dust cloud that threatened to envelop her. Everyone had gone to The Taming of the Shrew last Season. What did the woman mean by that? “Just how do you think you know me?”

“You’re Lord Robbie’s little sister. I saw you in Hythe’s box with him.”

Lord Robbie? Maddie frowned at the blonde. No one had ever called Robert such a ridiculous thing in his life. “And just how do you know my brother?”

Lucy folded her hands in her lap. “He’s a very generous patron of the arts.”

Patron of the arts? Speaking with Lucy Reed made Maddie’s head pound, and she had more pressing things to think about. After all, she had just ridden off without her wolfish fiancé, hadn’t she? She probably should have thought that through better, but she’d been so flustered standing in the road in her bare feet, listening to how her Wes had shared his bed with the blonde who now sat across from Maddie, that she hadn’t been thinking clearly. She still wasn’t.

And then it hit her.

Maddie leaned forward in her seat and peered at the woman opposite her. Not Lucy Reed. “You’re Lucinda Reed.” Suddenly the outlandish walking dress made sense.

“So nice to be recognized even in this backwater county. How I let Dove talk me into this excursion is a mystery. I must have been foxed when I agreed to it.”

“You played Bianca on the stage.”

The blonde actress inclined her head. “I would have done a fabulous job as Kate, but Henry said my ingénue presence was better suited for Bianca.” She rolled her eyes dismissively.

Maddie held in a snort. If Henry, whoever he was, had seen Lucinda Reed pummel an earl with her fists, trip two grown werewolves, and leap into a moving conveyance, she would have been cast as the shrew in an instant.
