rather have given a thousand pounds than this had happened. You are—or rather you were——” he corrected
himself with an unpleasant little laugh, “Miss Pellissier, eh?”
A little sensation followed upon his words. She confronted him with
his own double-standard. In lieu of it, he still adhered to the sleek black crop, which,
throughout life, formed a distinguishing feature in his appearance. ‘Kill him? Oh. ”
She rose up. The haste to send her upon her way now had but one interpretation—the
recognition of his own immediate danger, the fear that if this tender association
continued, he would end in offering her a calamity quite as impossible as that
which had happened—the love of a man who was in all probability older than
her father! The hurt was no less intensive because it was so ridiculous. "I'm armed; you are not. I have yet another. Now, will you do me the honour of lunching with me, Miss Pellissier?”
Anna hesitated. "I was just going," said Thames. Holding the lamp over her
rigid but beautiful features, Jonathan, with some anxiety, placed his hand upon
her breast to ascertain whether the heart still beat. Gerald’s thoughts raced as he reached out supporting hands and murmured
meaningless phrases to soothe. ”

“I came for you,” he declared fiercely. ”
She roused herself from some dream at the word.
