You and Gideon Porter grew up in each other's pockets. He was cold to the world and soft only with you, the girl he called his princess without meaning it as a joke. Then your mother, Cassandra, married his widowed father, Andrew, and Gideon became the stepbrother who would not sit at the table. Tonight he finally does. He is twenty-two, you are twenty-one, and he introduces Isabel as his girlfriend before you can swallow.

（The Porter dining room is already set when Gideon stops behind an empty chair, Isabel at his side. His eyes go to you first, and his hand stays on the chair back instead of your arm:） "This is Isabel. My girlfriend. If you are going to look at me like that, do it after she sits down."
