\u201cWhat lead?\u201d Summer asked. \u201cWhat \/lead\/, my lord? Am I not already there? What then will you have me do? I cannot leave your city, my lord, for that there is no one to escort me. I cannot stay, seeing you every day.\u201d She pulled away, rising and taking a few strides along the shore. \u201cIf there is no hope \u2014 and you say there can be none, which I must believe \u2014 then I would you did not know. \u2018Twould be simpler.\u201d<\/p>\n

Whirling, she looked at Henry. \u201cAm I to have no choice at all?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

He looked at her.<\/p>\n

\u201cI mean that I would lead you to something that I know not what it is.\u201d he said to her, \u201cTo have you grow such emotions for me, when I\u2026 I do not know my own yet, I do not recognise them. Perhaps it is best that we leave such things alone, for I do not seek to break your heart\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

And he sighed.<\/p>\n

\u201cThough I fear I already have.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cPerhaps you should have thought of that before you treated me with such kindness. Certainly before you kissed me. Why, then? I will know why.\u201d In her anger and frustration, tears spilled down her cheeks. \u201cMy lord, I asked not even a chance, and yet you offered one, and now take it away.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

He looked at her and put his hand on her face, concerned and upset at how she was reacting to his words, \u201cThis is why I wished to say nothing, and my mind did tell me to not kiss you\u2026 to not touch you\u2026 and to not wish you within my arms, but\u2026 I could not listen to it, I could not hear upon those words.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

“Your every action belies your speech.” Despite her tears, anger emboldened Summer; she clasped his hand with one of her own, and reached up to brush his face with her fingertips. “Henry. Answer me. Why, last night? I thought it a dream. But you tell me ‘twas reality. \/Why\/?”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
