He had been thinking a lot about Angelica’s behavior these past two months. Perhaps he’d judged her too harshly and her cool behavior toward him was due to being intimidated by her new position as a duchess. After all, her cool demeanor had been noticeably absent last evening. Knowing how overzealous her mother was on subjects of propriety, he wondered if perhaps Angelica was now afraid to be herself. He would talk to her tonight, he resolved. He was sick of living with a veritable ghost of the woman who’d so delighted him in the beginning of their relationship. He looked out the window of their bedchamber and saw that she had taken Loki outside in the garden. He knew that if he didn’t catch her now, she would flee back into her writing room to scribble until dawn. As he headed out of the room and down the hall, he noticed that the door to the writing room was ajar. Perhaps it would be a better idea to wait for her there, so she had no chance of escaping him.
