Ugh, it would have simply been better if this idiot had thought it a joke and been on his way. Now he was utterly preaching at her.

No, she would certainly not introduce herself. He had not earned it. Not to her. "You fool. Go ahead and keep your damn head in the clouds."

Of course she had a reason. To not be chained to a family who - despite what some of them said - never really wanted her. Handsome sure didn't. She could see it now, being dragged tirelessly around to each ball he could to get her off of his back. This way was simpler, quieter. Allowing her the space she needed.

And she wasn't about to admit to this fool that part of her plan was to use her animagus form to her advantage in getting answers. How stupid did people really think she was?
