Subject: QOTD for Wednesday, October 10

The following quote is taken from Lord John and the Brotherhood of the Blade by Diana Gabaldon, Chapter 21, Cowardice. Copyright (c) 2007 by Diana Gabaldon. All rights reserved.

“She called him by name—by God, it was Jamie Fraser! And through his haze of panic and excitement, Grey made out the man’s reply and realized with horror that he was making indecent insinuations to the woman, stating a plain intent to take her to his bed. He had kidnapped her, then—and dragged her to this distant spot in order to dishonor her without the possibility of rescue or interference.

Grey’s first impulse had been to retire quietly through the brush, then tear down the mountain as fast as possible and run back to camp to fetch some men to apprehend Fraser. But the presence of the Englishwoman altered everything. He dare not leave her in the Scot’s grasp. He had so far had one experience in a brothel, and knew just how quickly immoral transactions could be accomplished.”

What would Wednesday be without Jamie and Claire?
