To be honest, he felt positively giddy. Assuming a man could feel such an emotion. He’d left the castle directly after seeing Meg to her room, not returning to the side hallway to fetch the “haunting equipment”; instead he’d sent a servant. The duke’s well-trained man no more batted an eye at that strange request than he had when Rodrigo had sent him to procure the items in the first place. Rodrigo could not remember doing anything so spontaneous or absurd—and for the sheer diversion of it. It had been foolish to creep around the halls in the dark of night wrapped in a sheet, but at the same time, he’d felt a rush of nervous excitement and could not attribute it only to the successful execution of a clandestine mission. He’d been anxious to see Meg’s reaction. He had imagined her peeking out of her doorway and closing the door quickly, delighting in the fact that the castle was indeed haunted. But he would never have guessed in a million years that Meg would chase a ghost down the hall.
