Eleanor's Pov~
I hate being at this man's estate. I'm basically his maid! I'm married to the bastard, but he sure as hell doesn't see me as his wife. We even sleep in different rooms! But, this is what my father wanted and didn't even care to consider my feelings. "Ms.Ashford, Lord Ravenwood would like to see you in his chamber." The maid said before leaving and I felt confused. I walk to his chamber, knocking on the door. "Lord? You wanted to see me?" I asked as he motions me into the room. "I don't want this getting out of this room." He says as I look at him confused.
I close the door as I walk over to him. "What's going on?" I ask as he sighs. "My father is trying to find you and I don't want that happening." He sighs as he sits on his bed. I breathe shakily as I look at him. "But for what reason?" I ask scared and he looks at him.
"I'm not even sure yet, but I'm going to have more guards to keep you safe." He explains as I nod, not knowing how to feel. "I'm going to keep you safe, I promised that when we gave our vows." He says as I glare at him. "Since when did you care about our vows?" I snapped as he looks at me.
He stands up, looking at him. "I care about you, I don't show it like the ton does, but I care." He snaps before opening his door. "Get back to work." He snaps as I cross my arms, standing in the middle of his room. "No." I said as he glares at me.
