The Devil of Clan Sinclair
“A week of harmony, at least on the surface. Every morning, Virginia left the cottage for Drumvagen, returning only at the gloaming, as the Scots called it. Except for those times when he visited Elliot when she was there, she didn’t see Macrath. They didn’t converse. He didn’t threaten, and she didn’t try to convince him of anything.
He spent a lot of time in the nursery, however, and that was disconcerting.
When he smiled at her, she forgot what she was saying, her words stumbling to a... halt. She stared at him and he looked oddly pleased, leaving her wishing he hadn’t come to see Elliot.
“He loves the boy,” Agatha said one day after Macrath left.
“That he does,” Mary added. “Elliot smiles in a certain way when his father comes to tuck him in at night.”
Anyone who saw them together could tell Macrath adored Elliot. He wasn’t afraid to lift him from his cradle, carry him from place to place, and even play horse with him.MoreLess
