“He had done more than break her maidenhood, he had broken her heart. If she were not his sister he would not care about her heart. It was because she was one of his own that he must protect her from wolves like himself.”

“I have done nothing untoward, Weston. Why do you carry on so? She is not my first virgin, nor will she be my last. What’s done is done and cannot be undone. For my part, I do not regret it. More to the point is what is to be done now to recover her?” “You have consummated the marriage.” Weston babbled wildly. “If she is with child it will be the legal heir to the estate and you will have no grounds for annulment.”
Sebastian fixed his eyes on the misty lake that had swallowed up his young wife. “I do not want an annulment. The little mouse will do nicely. I shall remain wed to her long into old age and if there are children, all the better. They will give her something to do. Now pick yourself up, man and let us away. The guests will be tearing the walls down if we do not.”
