Victoria Alexander Quote

Leo offered his arm and Cassie took it. Sister and brother strolled aimlessly for a few moments. Perhaps we have not suffered enough to earn happiness?Cassie glanced up at him, relieved to note the teasing twinkle in his eye. I should be happy to make you suffer with a well-placed kick to your backside if that’s what you wish.Leo laughed. I shall pass if you don’t mind. Besides, I am barely nine-and-twenty and have plenty of time left to enjoy myself before the need truly arises to settle myself with a wife. He sobered. You, however—Don’t say it, Leo, Cassie said firmly. Or I shall be forced to deliver that kick and a great deal more.
