Trouble
She wasn't entirely sure when it had happened. She considered maybe that she had always thought him handsome but only that from a distant observation of a proud and arrogant prince.
Suddenly they were thrown in each other's path…because of Merlin…and because of Merlin she began to see something much deeper in her prince.
The way he said her name, her full name, made her shiver slightly, which was worrying in itself but when she pushed him to the floor as the beast swept overhead…and she lay on top of him in the half dark…
That was when she knew she was in trouble – big trouble – because she could almost imagine that he had sounded slightly breathless in return and his eyes of liquid blue had held hers that split second longer than was strictly necessary.
Oh yes, she was in big trouble.
