Her Savage Scot: 1 (Highland Warriors) - Plot & Excerpts
As they anointed his brother with oil in the name of the Lord, Connor risked a sideways glance. Her fierce glare did not waver from the scene before them. She believed the healing ritual would work and Fergus would once again rise in full health. He wished he shared that faith. But he knew of no one who’d survived the extreme unction. As far as he was concerned it was merely a prelude to death, despite how the monks believed otherwise. Yet if Fergus survived, he would no longer be a true husband to Aila. He would be required to give up the pleasures of the flesh, dedicate his life to God. Not a life Fergus would relish. And Aila would be tied to a husband who wasn’t a husband, and still beyond his reach. When, finally, MacLeod pronounced the inevitable, grief seared Connor’s heart. For the brother he had hero-worshipped as a child, the brother he’d tolerated as a man. Instinctively he turned to Aila to offer her comfort. He didn’t know how or why and it no longer mattered, but since her marriage she’d grown close to Fergus.
