Midnight Secrets
“Bridget and I huddled together, clinging to the forested edge of the path, each thankful of the other’s presence as we hurried to the village. This was our first full Sunday off. I should have been smiling instead of having my heart so full of the troubles at Killdaren Castle and guilt that I hadn’t worried more about my sisters’ archeological expedition last Sunday. It occurred to me, in hindsight, that I should have been worried enough to sneak back to the village to see them. But my mind had... been consumed by those at the castle.

But Sean was the center of it. My thoughts of him were like the waves of the sea tossing to and fro at the whim of the wind, so caught up in the current, there was no escape other than to see the storm through.
After overhearing the conversation between the Earl of Dartraven and Sir Warwick, I told Bridget that I’d gone to the round room to discover what Sean did there at night.MoreLess
