Once Upon A Highland Autumn (2014) - Plot & Excerpts
Kit looked up from where he was shifting the last beam that blocked the staircase. Megan came across the room, her eyes blazing, her determined steps ringing on the stone floor. He felt his heart leap at the sight of her, then fall flat at the anger in her expression. He descended the steps toward her. “I came to tell you that I’m leaving—tomorrow, in fact.” So soon? His chest clenched, and he swallowed. Had the kiss upset her so much? “I see,” he said carefully. She was staring at the floor between his feet. “I want to end our—agreement. I intend to go home to Glenlorne and wait for Eachann.” “And you’ll want to marry right away,” he said, keeping his tone flat, though jealousy churned in his belly. “Yes.” The wind caught the shutter behind him and blew it against the wall with a boom that filled the whole castle. Megan cried out, and he stepped toward her, but stopped short of taking her into his arms. “Just the wind,” he murmured, but she cried out again—and so did he—as the rain followed, a sudden unexpected downpour.
