      “I owe you a debt I can never repay.”

      “Were it in my power, I’d go to the ends of the earth to grant you your heart’s desire.” He smiled, his face lightening. “Now what, I wonder, would such a calm and quiet lady desire most in the world?”

      Freedom from fear. The thought flashed into her head on a stab of longing. “M-my needs are few, my lord. I’m quite content.”

      The earl chuckled. “A lady with no demands? What an extraordinary creature!”

      “Not at all. Alas, I’m entirely ordinary.”

      The wryness of her rejoinder faded, replaced by a curious mingling of alarm and anticipation as the earl stepped closer. She stood motionless, breath suspended. She could not make herself look away.

      “No, my lady,” he said after a long moment. “Though you may be many things, ‘ordinary’ is certainly not one of them…!”
