Knights of Stone - Lachlan
“His mission dampened the excitement. He’d already had to swallow his pride to ask the gargoyles for assistance, and they’d turned him down flat. He had no desire to face that sort of rejection, again, especially one coming from Raina’s full, pink lips.
As he slowed to a jog across the moors, he debated how to approach her. Asking her directly was out of the question. Maybe he could sneak around it and coax her into giving him information.
A long shot. Yet, no other options came to mind. He’d have to wing it.
When he spotted her red plaid dress through the dark foliage of the forest, the tightness in his chest alleviated. Good, he wasn’t too late to catch her.
He slowed to a more casual pace. “Hi, Raina.”
She stopped and spun around, squinting at him with surprise. “Lachlan?”
Hearing her say his name in a silky rasp knocked him off his game.
