Susana And the Scot
“Susana stilled at Keir’s call. She waited for him to cross the bailey. He strode quickly and there was a furious expression on his face. “What is it?” she asked.
“My lady, did you give orders to remove the men from the eastern patrols?”
She gaped at him. “Why would I do that?” They’d agreed they needed to keep an eye on Scrabster’s men.
Keir scrubbed his face. “I just saw Marcus in the stables. He told me he’s been reassigned to patrol the castle. And the other men—but for one patrol—have been ...ordered to return as well.”
Susana gaped at Keir, barely able to swallow her fury. “Ordered by whom?” But she knew. She already knew.
“Lochlannach.”
“How dare he?” She clenched her fists. “How dare he go behind my back and give my men countermanding orders without my approval?”
“He is a cocky bastard,” Keir muttered.
Cocky! Keir didn’t know the half of it.
“Where is he?”
“I believe he’s in your father’s study. Going over the maps.”
“The maps?”MoreLess
