This week I have an excerpt from my forthcoming book, Lord Westbrook's Muse which is a sort-of sequel to Lady Westbrook's Discovery. It's set four years after the end of the first book and Margaret's grumpy son Robert is grumpier than ever. What he needs is the love of a good woman (and the opportunity to spank her) but he doesn't know that yet.
He has just met Cass at his mother's garden party but her insistence that he participate in some very silly Victorian parlour games has led to him storming off in a huff. Later she comes across him as he walking in the grounds of his manor and apologises for her involvement in the earlier incident.
"You have apologised and I have accepted your apology. There’s seems little point in discussing it any more. I don’t know what you expect we can do to draw a line under it further.”
“You could punish me,” Cass said quietly.
Robert did his utmost not to respond in any way. For the next 30 seconds, every ounce of his energy was dedicated to keeping his face neutral and his breathing natural. While inside, her provocative words had lit a fire within him that he felt barely able to control.
Punish her? Had she intended it the way that it had sounded?

Yes, trying to act cool in a situation like that I believe is nearly impossible.
ReplyDeleteI love this. She's really the one in control in this scene.
ReplyDeleteWell it sounds pretty good to me too.
ReplyDeleteWay to shock a person! I wonder what Robert is going to do.
ReplyDeleteHeh. I think you can probably guess.
DeleteI think underneath, all men have a desire to spank--the fire is kindled when they are asked and prompted.
ReplyDeleteHow could you not take a girl up on that offer? Love this book!
ReplyDeleteYes he heard her right now what will he do about it I wonder. Great snippet Etta :)
ReplyDelete:) I believe perhaps she did, my pre-Raph sister. :D
ReplyDeleteI do love those pre-Raph Ophelia paintings... some of my favourites.
ReplyDeleteAlso love the way you describe him suppressing his response.

Hi Anonymous! I am glad you found my Saturday Spanks post 'a amusement account it'. That was exactly what I was going for!
DeleteCheck out the rest of my posts for 'far added agreeable'. There's more 'far added agreeable' than you can shake a stick at.
I am not clicking your web page link by the way. We've only just met one another, after all. And i don't want to rush things.
