SYNOPSIS Life to lovely Patricia Braith*ait was a series of parties, trips abroad and now—Palm Beach. Her castles crumble when her Aunt Pamela informs her that Mr. Braithwait’s fortune is depleted and suggests that Pat marry the wealthy, middleaged Harvey Blaine to insure her own and her father's future, warning her that love fades. Aunt Pam’s marriage with Jimmie Warren—handsome, young lawyer—was beginning to pall in spite of the ardent love they had had for each other. Stunned by her aunt's revelations, Pat is seriously considering Blaine to save the father she adores, when she meets a fascinating young camper, w ho only reveals his first name. Jack. Despite their instant attraction for one another. Pat discourages future meetings. Later, Pam cautions Blaine to be matter-of-fact and not sentimental in trying to win Pat. stressing the point that his one advantage is the fact that Pat is desperately hard up and worships her father, who lives for Pat alone. His financial predicament Is largely due to the gradual caving in of his plantation. Pat accepts Blaine's proposal. That night, she longs for Jack and hopes he will come to see her. W hile •lancing with Pat. Jimmie voices his lisapproval of Blaine. She lifts a -fricken. pleading face to his and. 1 all at once, a new and disturbing mutual attraction grips them. After midnight. Pat makes a fruitless search of the beach for Jack. In the 1 Jeep recesses of her heart, she had hoped that he would somehow rescue her from Blaine. CHAPTER ELEVEN They had all forsaken her. Aunt Pam, Jack — even Daduins hoped I she would marry soon. For the first time it occurred to her that Jack ' might be married. He had asked to see her again. Then thought better I >f it. ... Somehow this thought loosed the iron hand that had closed in around her heart. The congealed bitterness • and hardness melted in a flood of weeping. Jack was married. There was no hope for her anywhere in I the world. Nobody to care what bej came of her. She ran blindly out of the light into the moon-patterned blackness of the gardens, entering more by instinct than sight upon one of the winding paths cui through centuries of tropical growth. On and on she stumbled, weeping like a child in loud abandon. Tiny electric lights strung | close enough to light the way, and I far enough apart to preserve the gloom, guided her deep into the ‘ jungle. She sank down on a rustic seat. “Oh, I’m so young! So young!” she kept crying over and over. "And | death is so long.” “Pat.” She lifted her drowned face. War- , '-en stood in the path before her. | She had not heard his coming. His I face was very pale in the glow of a ; small light above the beneh. Watching her from the shadows ; of the veranda, he had seen her leave the ballroom with Perry. Seen Perry come back alone. Uneasyover her mood, and over her being out alone at this hour of the night, he had followed at some distance. He had seen her eager acanning of the beach, her gesture of resignation, heard her abandoned break. All the way into the deep garI dens her terrible sobbing had flayed him, but he had not made his presence known, realizing she needed to I be alone. Needed freedom from tfie 1 gallant front she had been forced 1 to maintain all afternoon and eve- ; ning. When he could no longer enI dure her torment he came to her. i He bent down and lifted her in his 1 arms. j “Oh Pat, little Pat! Little Pat!” he cried. “I can’t bear it. I can’t let

him or anybody have you. It’s more than I can endure. I love you, Pat. I love you.” She yielded limply, crumpling in her misery on his breast. Her sob--1 bing ceased sharply as she heard ■ his amazing declaration. 'Til kill that darned skunk if he tries to take you from me. Kiss me. Pat. Kiss me. I meant never to tell i you; and I could have won. But I ’ can’t see you tortured.” Boys had tried to kiss Patricia at prom dances, but she had eluded them with a laugh. She had not cared for secret intrigpes and it had been generally understood that “Pat is great fun in a crowd, but an iceberg. No necking." , L pon several occasions some boyhad succeeded in peeking her cheek ( or her ear. But never before had she known a man’s kiss And she was hungry for love that woijd shield at? protect and rescue het from Blaine. She clung to Warren in grateful love. And as his lips took hers, the quivering bud which Jack had this morning all but brought to fruition, flamed into a full flower. After a long while he drew her onto his knees “My sweet, you must break that engagement at once—tonight. I can’t stand to think you are tied even by a hated bond for one night to any man. You are mine—do you hear—mine." “Yes, Jimmie, kiss me. Oh. kiss me and kiss me ” she murmured, her lips against his. “and hold me close—from old Blaine.” Presently Warren said: “Break that engagement tonight. Hear me?” “Yes.” “I’ll take care of you from now on.” “Yes, Jimmie. Oh, yes.” And even as she sank deeper in his embrace she visioned a tall dark knight met by the side of the road. ... In a flash of memory she was again in his tent, swaying toward the fierce hunger that looked out of his eyes. And deep down in her mind, she laughed at herself. The cynical laugh of modern youth. W hile emotionally overwrought she had met a romantic figure of a man
