else, but with Niall at her side
they could forge a new peace between the clans.
The
sunlight began to flicker over the horizon, announcing the arrival of the next
day as it bathed them in an amber glow. Anna sighed. She wished heartily that
this moment would never end. Niall leant over and gave her a sweet, lingering
kiss, sealing her wish that they could lay there forever.
Anna
was too absorbed in the taste of Niall to notice the creak of the door or the
two men that came to stand over them. It was only when their shadows fell across
their entwined bodies did Niall and Anna pause to see what it was. Both of them
followed the great trunks of legs, squinting to make out the features of the
intruders.
Anna
squealed and buried herself into his chest in embarrassment as she recognised
her father, his expression a mixture of surprise and satisfaction. Laird
Sinclair merely grinned.
Niall
shook his head with a groan, burying his head against Anna’s hair. “Ack, now
I’ll definitely have to marry ye.”
