Sentimentality.. romantic trysts.. sweet words? Where had this come from, and had women before mentioned needing such things? Benjamin was certainly new to this whole game of what he found to be cat and mouse, and he didn’t like how he had somehow become the prey. The prey of a vicious feline out to gut him as revenge.
It was a moment yet before Benjamin finished his ale, and as soon as he was through, he found himself urged to his feet. It was as Caradoc said: women needed to be claimed, and (perhaps it was the alcohol talking) Benjamin was determined now more than ever to be the one doing the claiming.
With a slap to Caradoc's shoulder in what Benjamin hoped to resemble good sportsmanship, he headed out, hands fisted at his sides. One Emmeline Vance was soon to be his.
