Welcome back to Six Sentence Sunday! I want to thank everyone, once again, for their great support each week. I do appreciate your visits and look forward to each comment with anticipation. I also look forward to visiting your sites and reading your wonderful stories.
Katarina and the masked man are back! Once again I’m following up my six from last week with another next six sentences from Only Scandal Will Do.
If you remember, Duncan has purchased a woman in a brothel auction and has come to claim his prize. His “slave” however, continues to insist there has been a mistake. He has managed to turn the tables on the “lady” and called her virtue into question. Outraged, she turned and fled, only to be stopped short by her purchaser. Now she’s put some distance–and a chair– between them, how is she to convince him?
“Sir, you must hear me. I truly am not what you think.” His skeptical stare was bearable, but when he pursed his lips and made a “tsk tsking ” sound, he might as well have shouted the word “whore.”
“I am not!” Katarina clutched the chair’s golden upholstery to keep from launching herself at him and wrapping her fingers around his arrogant throat. “I am Lady Katarina Fitzwilliam, sister to the Earl of Manning—kidnapped and brought here tonight against my will.”
Hmmm. Her story might be true? Think he believes her yet?
If you’d like to read more about Kat’s plight, check out my posts from January at Sweet Saturday Sample and February here at SSS. Come back next week for another six sentence installment.

Hmmmm, he seems determined, especially since he’s spent a great deal of money on her…but just maybe he’ll believe her – although I don’t think he’s going to until he comes up against the “proof” of her innocence. Great six
