The Earl of Winchester’s mouth widened into a roguish grin. \u201cI\u2019m flattered by your scrutiny of my anatomy and amused by your blush, especially after your studies into animal reproduction.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lady Laura Jamison’s hand flew to her cheek and her heavy reticule knocked her arm. \u201cI never blush.\u201d To have him observe her ogle him was embarrassing and gave her another reason to be irritated by his company, petty though her reasons might be. She tugged, but her hand was imprisoned under his. With her nose raised a fraction, she said, \u201cFor the sake of propriety, I was ensuring your garments were intact. You\u2019ve a reputation for disappearing into dark corners and re-emerging with your clothing askew. As though hasty hands ripped your garments from your body.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cTut, tut, my pet. Has jealousy driven you to spying?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The entire congregation watched that woman, the Countess, beckon you to the back of the church. Heaven knows what you were doing while the bride and groom were signing the register.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
