HATING HER KING

'Gwen pushed him back, trying to create enough space between them. "I do not love you." Alexander smirked. "You do. You just don't know that you do." Gwen moved back. "Do you know the ways of my heart." "Yes, I do. And it tells the truth. You are only too stubborn to acknowledge it." He moved closer, pressing her against the wall. "When you decide to tell yourself the truth, I will be waiting." He kissed her forehead. "But don't make me wait long. I am not as patient as people think." This time he kissed her lips and staked off, leaving Gwen in a complete daze.' Marriage and a family is all life is to Gwen and she would see to it that she is not humiliated before then. A wife, and not a mistress is what she plans to be, but what can be done when the king of her country makes a proposal to put her by his side? Alexander is used to getting what he wants and getting his way, after all, he is King. But when he sets his eyes on the young and beautiful Guinevere who is just as stubborn as he is, will making her stay at the castle earn him her love, or will it be the beginning of his undoing? (Hating Her King is the sequel to Loving Her Duke and is also the second book of the British Blood Trilogy.)

The Final Plan

***

The rushing carriage informed its owner even before Denney caught sight of the familiar flag and coat of arms. Featings - the loose-tongued fool who had sworn his fealty, yet who often proved to be more of a nuisance than an ally.

Denney's brow furrowed with irritation. Why was he ever so impatient? Could the man not pause and spare a moment to consider his actions? Must he always be governed by his impulsive nature, responding always on toes without so much as giving another thought?

The carriage barreled toward him with reckless speed, and before it had fully come to a halt, its passenger leaped out with frantic energy. Denney remained still, watching and waiting.
