"Really? Have you ever thought that it is by staying away from those idiotic social engagements that keep my mind out of the gutter? Mifa is a guest of the Emerald family, nothing more and I will not let you or anyone else insult her. If you're so interested in knowing whoever I have relatives with, that you'll accuse a proper lady, I'll give you her name."
Elizabeth let out a sob. Mifa looked at her and then at Lucas not knowing what to do.
"This has to stop."
The devil shook his head, "There is no stopping it now."
"A proper lady? Ha! A proper lady traveling alone with no luggage and staying in someone's home without a chaperone? She's nothing but a whore. If she isn't your mistress then she's aiming to be."
Lucas took a step forward but Mifa put a hand on his arm. When he looked down she shook her head.
