Averill: Historical Romance (The Brocade Collection, book 3)
“Averill groaned from her position atop Pegasus. Her dream castle had been the same, but this time she hadn’t been the queen ruling her kingdom. She’d been on the parade grounds, running for her life from the knight that had come for her through the mists.
Averill was actually amazed she’d slept. Captain Tennison had returned late. She’d been pretending to sleep. She’d listened and waited for Captain Tennison to join her in slumber. That way, she could cry all she needed to, and no one would... have been the wiser. She rubbed at her thighs mindlessly, almost wishing she had cried.
Captain Tennison had been in a brutal temper when she’d awakened. He’d shaken her awake at the same time he rose and pulled the blanket from her, too. He hadn’t said a word to her in greeting, either. He’d simply looked right through her and stalked off.
Averill was fatigued. Depressed. Emotionally drained. She wondered how much worse it would be before they reached Damascus.MoreLess
