CHAPTER 18
Lisa William (FL)
Hurry ....
Circenn shifted so his weight was not resting fully on her ....
He allowed her to regain her freedom in regulated stages so she understood that he was giving it to her ....
It was neither a freedom she had earned nor one she could ever hope to take .....
It was important that she understand that his control over her was absolute .....
He granted her passage , permitted her range of motion .....
Despite his uncomfortable state of aròusal , he forced her to keep close contact as she slipped her body from beneath his .....
It was a purely male show of dominance .....
He leaned back so she was forced to stand on her feet by clutching on his shoulders , which put her lips a mere breath away from his ....
She kept her gaze defiantly averted , refusing to look at him while she used his body to pull herself up .....
He rose with her so their bodies touched at many contact points ....
He Didn't miss her swift intake of breath when he deliberately shifted so her brèasts brushed against his abdomen ....
He took her to the bed and , with one gentle push , seated her upon it ....
Then he turned his back on her as if she were nothing , no threat , insignificant .....
Another lesson she must learn ... he had nothing to fear from her ....
But the truth is he did that to give himself time to calm his desire .....
Circenn Macckevin (ML)
( took several deep breaths )
He took back his dagger from the door and put it into his boot .....
Circenn Macckevin (ML)
( Turning back to face her )
She had buried her face in her hands and her coppery hair slipped in a shiny fall across her knees .....
Circenn Macckevin (ML)
" No , Don't look at her long legs in those revealing trousers .... "
Her legs was Hardly concealed by the pale blue fabric , a man could follow the slim line of her ankles over muscled calves and up shapely thighs to the V of her woman's privacy .....
Circenn Macckevin (ML)
" Those trousers could seduce a Templar Grand Master ..... 🤦♂️ "
Circenn Macckevin (ML)
Who are you ? ....
He would continue in a gentle voice until she show resistance . Then he might roar at her .....
The Probability that she would roar back at him made him amused ....
Lisa William (FL)

Circenn Macckevin (ML)
" This is a good start .... "
Circenn Macckevin (ML)
Lisa , I am Circenn Macckevin ....
Circenn Macckevin (ML)
I wish that we had met under different circumstances , but we did not , and we must make the best of it .....
Circenn Macckevin (ML)
Where did you find my flask ? ....
Lisa William (FL)
In the museum where I work ....
Circenn Macckevin (ML)
What is a museum ? ....
Lisa William (FL)
A place that displays treasures and artifacts ....
Circenn Macckevin (ML)
My flask was on display ? For people to see ? ....
Circenn Macckevin (ML)
" Hadn't the curse worked ? .... "
Lisa William (FL)
No. It had just been found and was still in the box . It hadn't been placed on display yet .....
She didn't raise her head from her hands .....
Circenn Macckevin (ML)
Ah , so the box had not been opened . You were the first one to touch it .....
Lisa William (FL)
No , two men touched it before I did ....
Circenn Macckevin (ML)
You saw them touch it - truly touch the flask ? ....
She was silent for a long moment ......
Lisa William (FL)
Oh my God , the tongs ! ....
Her head shot up and she stared at him with an expression of horror .....
Lisa William (FL)
No. I didn't actually see them touch it . But there was a pair of tongs lying next to the box ......
Lisa William (FL)
I'll bet Steinmann and his comrade never touched the box or the flask at all ! ....
Lisa William (FL)
Is that what did this to me - touching the flask ? ....
Lisa William (FL)
I knew I shouldn't have pried into business that wasn't mine .....🤦♀️🥲
Circenn Macckevin (ML)
This is very important , lass . You must answer me truthfully ....
Circenn Macckevin (ML)
Do you know what the flask contains ? ....
Lisa William (FL)
( give him a look of utter innocence )
Circenn Macckevin (ML)
" She was either a very skilled actress or was telling the truth ..... "
Lisa William (FL)
No. What ? ....
Circenn Macckevin (ML)
" Actress or innocent ? .... "
