Kate paused in the library at the Duke of Hastings country estate and blinked up at Anthony. His words were almost unfamiliar to hear. She had spent her whole life used to people fawning over her flawless younger sister. It had never occurred to her that someone would think her worth looking at in that way.

And yet, here was Anthony Bridgerton saying "I cannot handle the way he keeps staring at you". The words were heavy, and heady. For the first time in her life she felt the words spoke to her.

"He only wants to get close to Edwina." She whispered back, knowing that would be the only way anyone would look at her without knowing her. Which was why her season had been delayed since her father could only afford one season for both girls, and Edwina stood a better chance at gaining a husband. Her father had strict rules for the type of man that could marry his daughters--and Anthony Bridgerton, biggest rake in London, was everything her father didn't approve of.

ALWAYS PROTECT YOU

Anthony had never thought himself a jealous person. Having seen Siena with another all that time ago had not even elicited jealousy. It merely reminded him of what he missed, what he longed for. But with Kate . . . it was different. Everything felt different. He saw another mans' eyes upon her and he felt a fire within him. Ignited and raging. A heat he never experienced before. And he should not care. Because he was intending to marry her sister. And yet . . . he could not deny how he felt. Ironic. Since he was denying how he felt about Kathani Sharma every second of every day. He had no claim to her, yet seeing even another man look at her was too much to bear.

But hearing her response, started to diminish the flame -- at least for the moment -- and instead, he felt heartbreak. Did she truly think so low of herself? Did she truly not recognize just how beautiful she was? She took his breath away every time he saw her and . . . it was so difficult to ignore. "He was looking at you," Anthony told her, emphatic and with conviction. "I know what is when one looks at another with such . . . lust. Such longing." Perhaps the jealousy would have returned had his mind not shifted thought and the implications of his words, making it clear that he was now talking about himself. His eyes locking onto her and finding it so easy to get lost on teh sea that her presence drowned him in.
