“Dinna flatter yerself, Lassie. Despite my considerable reputation with the lasses,” he punctuated the statement with a quirk of the brow and a wink, “I have no interest in ye.”
Fallon dismissed his vanity with a wave of her hand. Had he just insulted her, though?
He shifted slightly and a low groan escaped. His lips fell once again into a tight line as he ground out, “I mean ye no harm. I have lost my horse and am in need of another. If ye would allow me to take yers, I will be on my way.”
“I only have the two, and can no’ afford to lose one of ‘em. I can no’ help ye. I suggest ye take yer things and leave.”
Fallon felt heat roll over her and knew that a blush would follow as he stepped closer.
“My lady, ye and I both know that if I wanted to take yer horse, I coulda verra well have just taken it wit’ out yer permission. I am trying to be respectful. It is urgent that I continue my journey and I am ordering ye to stand aside, woman. I am a protector of the crown. I serve the King.”
“And I am the bloody Queen of the Fairies. I dinna care who ye are. The answer is no!”
Straightening her posture, she held her head high.
“Damn it, woman! Is there is no’ reasoning wit’ ye? I am trying to be nice, but to hell wit’ ye. I am leavin’ and I am takin’ wit’ me a horse!”
