The Game
“His expression was rigid with shock. She met Liam’s gaze again. If he was surprised by her appearance at court, he did not show it.
Katherine wished she could disappear. She was ashamed to face John Hawke now. She had behaved shamelessly with Liam when Hawke had been her true husband, before she and Liam had wed. She had never ever dreamed she would encounter him like this, publicly, surrounded by the tittering court—as he escorted Liam back to the Tower. While she prepared to go to the defense... of the man who had abducted her out of her wedding bed—the man the entire world thought to be naught but her lover.
