"Which is?"
His eyes roamed her face and he pulled away from the wall. Running one hand over his hair. He turned towards her. "To punish you of course. "
For a moment, Cole wondered whether she had heard. Her face showed no reaction to his words; she seemed frozen, petrified. Then her brows rose. "I see."
Cole was quite certain she didn't see anything. Because punishing her wasn't the only reason he had left her at Blakewood Manor. The earl had discovered he wanted his wife, despite what she did, despite how she tricked him. And that angered him. The idea that he could still want her after all that, after all, she had done, caused him to question his sanity. This series of events eventually led to some hard decisions he made.
He knew if he stayed with her in one house, he would somehow succumb to the desire to touch her. And when that happens. The anger directed towards himself would no longer wane. So he had left her where he couldn't see her. Left her where he couldn't touch her. Out of sight, out of mind. Until now.

The thought of stealing his father's new horse out to the open field made his blood tingle. The boy grinned mischievously. Of
