About This Quote

As she pulled away the glove, and at the first glimpse of her fragile, white hand, all thoughts of negotiation fled. "I don't see how matters could become worse," he muttered. "I am already besotted with a needle-tongued, conceited, provoking ape leader of a lady."Her head jerked up. "Besotted? You're nothing like it.

Vengeful is more like it. Spiteful." She was besotted by him, which meant that she was in love with him. She might not know it yet, but that alone would make him win over her heart.
