Elizabeth Hoyt Quotes

She Rose And Walked To The Small Fireplace, Where A Kettle Had Been Set Long Before Supper. It Was Gently Steaming Now. She Caught Up A Rag And Reached For The Handle, But Another, Much Bigger, Hand Got There First. Lily Gave A Tiny Jump, Watching Wide-eyed As Caliban Picked Up The Hot Kettle As Easily As Lifting A Twig. At Least He'd Had Enough Sense To Shield His Palm From The Heat With A Rag. He Stood Blank-faced Until She Pulled Herself Together. "In Here." She Stepped Gingerly Around His Bulk And Led Him Into The Little Bedroom. A Tin Hip Bath Was Waiting, Laid Beside The Bed On Some Old Cloths. It Was Already Half Full Of Cold Water. "You Can Pour It In There." He Lifted The Hem Of His Shirt To Hold The Bottom Of The Kettle And She Caught An Unsettling Flash Of His Stomach. Hastily She Looked Away, Her Cheeks Heating.
