The Pleasure In Surrender (an Erotic Historical Short Story) - Plot & Excerpts
Sir Geade read the note, lifted a graying brow, and then passed the small scroll to Lady Edwina, who held it beneath the oak table to read it. Not that everyone wasn’t aware of the queer fact that she could read. Prepare for a wedding or a siege. With all gazes resting on her, Edwina schooled her expression into a neutral mask. “Should I thank him for the warning, Geade?” Sir Geade snorted. “He gives us time to retreat to the keep, stock the larders, and call our neighbors for assistance. Perhaps we should.” “What sort of warrior would give away his plan?” she murmured, not the least bit alarmed. Not yet. “Either a fool or one who’s supremely confident.” She traced the bold scrawl scratched across the parchment with her fingertip, knowing instinctively the bold knight had written the message himself. No proud scribe would pen a note so spare. Grimvarr had been written across the bottom—as if she should already know his name and the two syllables should strike fear.
