Chapter 88

Kit spoke to several Representatives on her way back toward the castle. It took her nearly an hour just to walk across the lawn because of the men waiting to have their chance. None of them were men she was particularly fond of, she noted. In fact, plenty of them were on her list for cuts. They were either too self-involved, too shy, did not appeal to her physically, or they seemed to have absolutely nothing in common. Merek stopped her to say he admired how her gown showed off her tits, and she’d simply walked away. What a beast of a man.

At least she’d had the chance to speak to Landon briefly. He hadn’t been one of the men waiting for her, but the slingball went well foul of the area they were playing in, and he was sent to retrieve it. She noted how lovely his light blue eyes were and how handsome he was when he smiled. Kit was looking forward to getting to know the young man from Brendrake even better.
