Duchess 02 - Surprising Lord Jack - Plot & Excerpts
—Venus’s Love Notes “Yes.” Jack sounded angry, not shocked or surprised, and he carried the bundle securely as if he’d handled infants before. “A boy—he looks to be a month or two old. He’s lucky the dog was here or he would have frozen to death. Come with me.” She hurried after him, the dog following at her heels. Once they were free of the alley, Jack turned right and banged on the first door he came to. It jerked open, revealing a scowling giant, a man a good handbreadth taller than Jack and weighing at least twice as much. He had a scar over his right eye and a flattened nose that looked as if it had encountered far too many fists. “What do ye—” The giant’s eyes widened as they focused on Jack, and then his face paled as his gaze continued down to the baby cradled in Jack’s right arm. “Er, what are ye doing here, milord?” “What does it look like I’m doing, Albert? I need to speak to your mistress.” Albert’s Adam’s apple bobbed above his cravat.
