The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Betty Zane by Zane Grey: "I thought you were a gentleman. I have really taken the trouble to defend you
against persons who evidently were not misled as to your real nature. I will
not listen to you," said Betty coldly. She turned away from him, all her
softened feeling changed to scorn.
"You shall listen to me," he whispered as he grasped her wrist and pulled her
backward. All the man's brutal passion had been aroused. The fierce border
blood boiled within his heart. Unmasked he showed himself in his true colors a
frontier desperado. His eyes gleamed dark and lurid beneath his bent brows and
a short, desperate laugh passed his lips.
"I will make you love me, my proud beauty. I shall have you yet, one way or
another."
