Sirena hurried into the tiny room they used as a kitchen, greeted Molly, their maid of all work, and dropped her basket. Her heart galloped like Bakeley’s horse must have done that morning before his master stopped her on the street.
She’d not lost her gift after all. She’d not lost it, and Bakeley’s horse proved it. That dappled nose had drawn calm from her and stirred up a memory of Pooka. Perhaps that gelding was Pooka’s issue, though in truth, that sort of coloring was common enough.
Her breath hitched. And how was Pooka? Bakeley had made his poor lathered fellow stand waiting in the morning’s cold air. Was he careless of his cattle?
Or was he just that taken with her?
“What happened, my lady?” Molly asked. “Ye’re pale about the gills.”
She forced a laugh. “’Tis the stench of this city, Molly. Will I ever get used to it?”
READ MORE“Nay, nor will I.” Molly reached for the basket. “A turnip. How ever did you know I was wanting one for the stew? A fey one you are, my lady.”
Sirena laughed and shooed her away. “A lucky guess.”
It hadn’t been lucky at all, drawing a rich lord’s attention, in the street, of all places. She went about the preparations for Lady Jane’s breakfast, letting her overcharged heart cool.
How far had he followed her? How much had he seen?
Jamie, her brother, was lost to the world, but not to her. She’d never truly believed it before, and she didn’t believe it now.
