Claimed By a Highlander (The Douglas Legacy book 2)
“Lightning cracked, briefly lighting the rain-drenched road before plunging him into darkness again. He would feel like a damned fool returning to Drumlanrig Castle. Yet he could not shake the feeling that Sybil was in danger and needed him.
For two days he ignored that feeling and rode away from her and Drumlanrig. He told himself that Sybil had made her choice, and it was better for both of them. But the unease that crept up his spine would not listen to reason, and he finally gave in and turn...ed around.
How had she gotten under his skin in such a short time and when he’d done no more than kiss her? She had deceived and made a fool of him, and yet he would have taken her with him in a heartbeat.
And now he was going back for her.
It was deep in the night when Rory finally reached the castle. He dismounted and patted Curan’s shoulder, which was slick with rain and sweat. Curan had a big heart. Another horse could not have done that ride for him.
He walked to the gate and hoped the guards would remember him.MoreLess
