“I received a marriage proposal from the Duke of Westlake in regards to his son,” Daniella’s father told her over breakfast much as he would comment on the weather.

Her heart beat faster though she forced herself to maintain the same cool expression. “I had thought Lord Callen would be disinclined to marry already.”

“Not for him, but his older brother, Henry.”

Daniella stared at her plate, her food suddenly tasteless.

 

For those curious, yes, this is the same Callen and Daniella from Seducing the Ice Queen. They were haunting my thoughts again, so I decided to let them tell a little more of their story.

 

Daniella stared at her reflection. She would soon have to marry, and her father already had more than a few suitable offers.

Of course he did.

She was his heir and would be the next Duchess of Calloway.

Who cared if they married an ice queen as long as they become a duke?

Lady Daniella stared at the gently flowing river. It was almost Auburn’s birthday.

It had been so many years, she almost couldn’t remember the copper-red of her hair or how blue her eyes had been.

Daniella cursed herself.

Callen caught her walking alone along the path, but not even the spring mud dared dirty her ice blue gown.

While he yearned to earn some expression from her, the sadness on Lady Daniella’s face tore at him.

Maybe another frog would make her smile…

Lady Daniella raised a haughty brow at him. She plucked the frog from his hands and set in the grass at her feet.

“You are the Duke of Westlake’s son. When are you going to behave like it?”

He grinned at her. It was more words than she’d spoke to his prim and perfect older brother.

Beautiful. Aloof. Already untouchable.

Lady Daniella had not yet seen fourteen summers, but she was already every inch a duchess.

Callen wanted to see her smile. Wanted her to say something to him.

He yanked her braid, filched a cookie from her tea service, and offered her the frog in his pocket.
