She didn’t react at all to his offer or his words. Instead she turned saying something about going back to the house and leaving him shocked in the field. Again she didn’t wait for him simply leaving the basket with him and taking off as soon as she mounted the horse. His eyes tracked her as she disappeared into the forest and the tensions in his shoulders slowly released as he found himself alone.
He idly thought that maybe he should just let the girl have her freedom. Sure he hated losing but it was becoming more and more clear she didn’t wish to be married. Dealing with her anger and her sharp wit was fun but that wasn’t all it was about. She was sad at the prospect of getting married! To the point where she ran away from it! What sort of life would that make for him? A bride who always wanted to run away! He would have to be worried about her at every turn. Their relationship wouldn’t be one born of any love or desire. She would probably grow to hate him when it was all said and done and would surely see him as the enemy
.
He picked up the basket and moved to the horse. If he let her go he would lose his change of improving his family fortune. He would be back to trying to find a suitable lady and his plans and dreams for his sister would be shot. She was his only chance to make it into the big leagues.
“I’m sorry” He said climbing onto the borrowed horse and pinching his nose “I can’t let you go my dear. Either way this will have to work”
And with that he took off after her to the estate.

“She is fine” He said watching the girl’s father shoot him a worrisome look.
“I will be continuing to court her” He said folding his arms and ignoring the incredulous look her father sent his way “Please arrange for the wedding to move forward. I would like her to come to my home tomorrow so she can tour the grounds… tell her that if she refuses to come I will come over here and drag her myself!”
He left the father and daughter with that. He went back to his own home just up the road and spent the rest of the night having his small contingent of servants prepare for her arrival. He had no doubt he would have to go get her but for now he pushed that thought away and focused on getting his home ready.
