Better off without him---that was one thing that Juliana could agree with anyone on. Even before Thursday evening, it had been obvious that Orpheus and Juliana were no match made in heaven. The Boy was too young, too stupid; and certainly did not have what it took to keep up with his wife. He was somehow oblivious to what marrying a Wilkes woman meant, and the kind of things that union came with; for one, the rule that you let them do whatever they wanted. The idea of just how stupid it had been, hitting her, brought another smile to Juliana's face. She absolutely could not wait until her brothers got a hold of the sorry bastard.
Juliana was taken off guard as Christopher suddenly lowered his voice, but tuned in again quickly to the matter at hand. She squeezed his hand back and smiled, then sighed and shook her head. "Oh, darling," she told him, her tone managing to be more wicked and devious than usual. "I'm afraid that I couldn't ask you to do the sort of things that I need to get through this marriage."
