![]() ![]() There were too many beautiful girls in the world. But I knew myself well enough to know I could never be faithful to one woman. I’d have slept with her before now if I hadn’t thought she’d read all kinds of meaning into us having sex. “That’s not the point, Darce.” Fucking Aurora would be the least of my problems. Aurora and I had known each other as kids, first crushes, but she didn’t know me now, not as an adult. And the alternative-that she’d want a real husband-was worse. “I don’t want to get married.” Certainly not to someone who only wanted me for the title I’d inherit. “I really want you to consider an arrangement with Aurora-she cares about our family, and she’d make an excellent wife.” However, knowing how he wanted my sister to inherit, I knew he would welcome a solution. Darcy hated the idea that there would be a battle over our grandfather’s assets, because it seemed to somehow taint the importance of our love for the man. “I don’t want to fight over grandfather’s estate,” I replied. “You know how I feel about that,” she said. ![]()
