      “She might be quite pretty, if she were dressed up.”

      Damon thought of the little governess in her dull clothes with her soft brown hair braided so modestly around her head.

      He sipped his wine, imagining the girl in an evening gown. Silk, he thought. It would cling to her slender body. And emerald-green, to match her eyes, eyes that could suddenly gleam with mischief. He gave himself a little mental shake.

      “No, I’ve no interest there. It has never been my way to tamper with innocents, or raise false hopes.”
