Lately, Lionel has been urging her to marry Lord Deveril. The dude's an earl and all that, but something about him makes her feel like she's got spiders in her drawers. So she said she’d rather die. At the time, Lionel let it drop, but she knows he's not giving up. She's lying in her locked bedroom, wondering what he'll try next, while her brother is 'entertaining' downstairs. A maid scratches at the door and offers her a nice hot toddy to help her relax. You'd think she'd see it coming, wouldn't you?

But you'd be wrong. Unbeknownst to Eleanor, Christopher Delaney, Earl of Stainbridge, has been drugged as well. Lionel and Deveril had initially offered him a pretty young man.

But he had his wits together enough to protest that he was a ladies’ man ('was married, you know'). So Deveril offers him the doxy he has waiting for him upstairs. Stainbridge (a/k/a Kit) can't have people getting the idea that he's a Backgammon player, so up he goes. Eleanor tries to protest as the stranger slaps her and demands that she perform. But the words, 'help!' Just won’t come out of her mouth.

She does manage “please,” though. (Because that’s so much easier to say than “stop” and not the least bit ambiguous.) Her last impressions as she drifts into oblivion are the look on his face and the pain Downstairs, Lionel and Deveril talk about how it’s a shame they couldn’t get Stainbridge to show his true colors so they could blackmail him. As for the sacrifice of Eleanor's maidenhead, Deveril's cool.

Taking her when she's unconscious wouldn't be that much fun anyway. And now that she's been 'shamed,' she has to marry him. He'll 'enjoy her hatred even more when she's compelled to conceal it.

He follows, and he catches up just as she’s fixing to jump off a bridge.

He snatches her down. They recognize each other.

Shortly after she comes around, he says, 'You are the woman who wasintroduced to pleasure last night.' Now, me, I'm thinking that statement, coming out of the mouth of a man who slapped and raped me last night, might just make me a little Not Eleanor, though.

This gal is the poster child for Flat Affect. She just calmly clarifies the situation. He raped her. She recognizes him, and besides her brother told her who had the 'honor' of doing it. (At this point in the book, I was attributing her passivity and emotionlessness to shock or the near death experience or something, but nope, that's not it.)Anyway, once they have that sorted out, Kit suggests they go back to his place, and she's like, 'sure, why not?' Once there, he insists she have some tea.

And because she's had such good experiences with drinks lately, she's all, 'pass the sugar.' Meanwhile Kit decides to tackle the problem square-on. Yes, he really does have a twin, by the name of Nicholas.

Kit proposes that she marry Nick (because that's just a super idea.) Exact words: “P 28 He is very kind-hearted and when he learns of this affair he will want to marry you and make all right.” (Eleanor evidently misses the obvious logic problem here.

If Nick did it, then he probably wouldn't need to learn about it. But she's not one to question, I guess.)Kit, to his credit, is at least concerned about his unintended victim, and wants to help her. He’s 'not the marrying type' himself, not to mention marrying a woman you raped has to be a little awkward. But if she springs a brat in nine months he’d like to keep it in the family. Still, if she's totally opposed to marrying her rapist he says he will set her up as a widow in some little burg somewhere, with enough money to live comfortably. Eleanor considers her options: 1) Return home and marry Deveril.
