I whirled, finding Ramsey on his horse, watching the fiasco with a glint of approval in his eyes. “Coward.” His eyebrows arched. “What did you call me, Princess?” “I called you a coward.” The gasps at my back only fueled my rage. “Watch yourself, girl. Your ignorance is showing.” “As is your true nature,” I spat. “Only fools and liars burn books and people’s homes.” Ramsey leaned forward in his saddle. If he thought it would intimidate me, he was sorely mistaken. I squared my shoulders and let the two words in my mind bleed all over my face. Fuck. You.
