Well, he no longer thinks that of her, at least. It's a small victory, but one Éowyn will take - after all, she has no intention of being a meek and shrinking wife, and he may as well know that as soon as possible.
Even through the shift, he can no doubt feel the taut muscle of her body, particularly as his hand smooths over her hip and ass. She holds perfectly still, watching him coolly. Still, there's something to the look in his eyes, that same hunger she felt in his kiss, that stokes the warmth inside her, an answering echo of desire. She has known there is a thrill in being wanted, but truthfully, she has never felt it as keenly before - nor had it go so quickly to her loins.
"There never was an Eorlingas who would shrink from anything," she tells him, with a clear note of pride in her voice, and lifts her chin a little. "Man or woman."
