"George" she practically squealed, and once again he shushed her. "You never learn, do you?" he murmured against her skin. "You're the one who's making me scream." "That wasn't a scream," he said with a cocktail smile. she eyed him with alarm. "I didn't mean it as a dare." He laughed aloud--although more quietly than she'd done--at that. "Merely planning for the future, when volume is not an issue." "George, there are servants!" "Who work for me." "George!" "When we are married," he said, lacing his fingers through hers, "we shall make as much or as little noise as we wish." Billie felt her face go crimson. he dropped a teasing kiss on her cheek. "Did I make you blush?" "You know you did," she grumbled. He looked down at her with a cocky smile. "I probably shouldn't take quite so much pride in that." "But you do." He brought her hand to his lips. "I do."

She couldn't help but chuckle at his profanity; he seemed to be having a much rougher time of it than she imagined was usual. "You're laughing?" he asked, his brows rising into a daring arch. "You should be glad I was already out of my gown," she told him. "Thirty-six cloth-covered buttons down the back." He gave her a fearsome look. "It would not have survived."

"Billie turned back to Geroge. "He's an idiot." He held up his hands. "You will find no argument here." "The plight of the younger son," Andrew said with a sigh. Billie rolled her eyes, tipping he read toward Andrew as she said to George, "Don't encourage him." "To be ganged up upon," Andrew went on, "never respected..." George crane his neck, trying to read the title of Billie's book. "What are you reading?" "And," Andrew continued, "apparently ignored as well."
