“Then you must tear them down.” Isobel turned the most sensible gaze on her. “The way to do that is clear. You must tempt him.”
For a moment, Marjory could only stare at her friend.
“I’m not a temptress.” She wouldn’t even consider it.
Isobel laughed. “Ah, but you can be if you wished.” She nodded to the burly stall-holder, indicating she and Marjory would each take a spit-roasted herring. “You just have to use what nature gave you, that’s all. You can begin the next time you see Alasdair.”
“He’s on his way to Blackshore. He’ll be busy, having been gone so long.”
“He’ll be back. And sooner than you think, I’ll wager. Or” – she produced a coin to pay for their fish – “did you not know it’s impossible to chase a thirsting man from a spring?”
“I am not a spring.”
“Nae, you’re a woman.” Isobel smiled brightly. “And that’s even better.”
Marjory just looked at her. “I do believe marriage has maddened you.”
“So it has.” Isobel had the audacity to wink. “In the very best way, I’ll agree.”
And as Marjory strove to keep a flush from blooming on her cheeks as she watched the stall-holder take their herring off the spits, she knew her friend’s influence must be affecting her. Because even before the man brought them the fish, she knew what she had to do.
She’d seduce Alasdair.
The only question was how and when.
