“After a fitful sleepless night, Carrick ate without appetite. They broke fast in the great room, his father presiding over the clan like a king on a throne. Angus Gordon sat centered at the high board with Analise's uncle and Declan. Carrick and Analise sat on the opposite end. Finally the meal ended and they moved to stand and Carrick assisted Analise down. Her hand was light on his arm, yet his full attention remained on the spot until she removed it. "We will go to the chapel shortly," his f...ather announced and waved serving women over to pour ale into their cups. Carrick guided Analise to sit in one of several chairs next to the large hearth and went to join her uncle who remained waiting for whatever his father did to prolong the morning. Angus thoroughly enjoyed being the center of attention with the few Macgregors who came as escorts. No sooner than he joined the men did his brother move away from the laird and go to Analise, his lips curving when noticing Carrick's regard. Analise listened to whatever Declan spoke, but her eyes constantly traveled about the room.MoreLessRead More Read Less
