Excerpt:<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat delights may I provide you this afternoon?\u201d Margarite Hagen inquired of her British lover James Arthur, the second Duke of Donovan.<\/p>\n

The two were enjoying luncheon in the Hotel de Crillon. James\u2019s view was of the Place de la Concorde, where Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette were guillotined during the French revolution. But James only had eyes for Margarite.\u00a0 Petite with a fair complexion, Margarite – a well-established courtesan – wore her blonde hair in ringlets and her large hazel eyes missed nothing. James found Margarite compellingly attractive, He would forever remember the first time they met. Margarite wore a black top hat, black silk stockings, a black garter belt, a garnet necklace, a chemise of burgundy silk crepe de Chine\u2014and nothing else.<\/p>\n

For the last seven months, James had spent every moment he could steal from the war with her. Margarite was excellent company and highly skilled in the arts of her profession.<\/p>\n

Now, however, James was to be dispatched to Italy. He had not yet shared the news with Margarite. But his deployment to Italy provided the perfect opportunity to break off the relationship. She was a Parisian courtesan, a demi-mondaine<\/em>. He was one of the most influential and wealthiest men in England.<\/p>\n

He broke from his reverie to gaze fondly at Margarite. \u201cI wish to experience all of your delights this afternoon, my darling.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had best be going then.\u201d Margarite laughed, caressing him discreetly as she rose to leave the table.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
