The Lady And the Knight (Highland Brides)
“The wizard reached for him. But in that instant, Sara's face flashed in Boden's mind.
"Nay!" he roared, and wheeled Mettle into the sorcerer.
The old man was slammed against Boden's leg, then fell with a hiss of anger. Pain shot through Boden's body like a thousand deadly spears. But Sara was there, on her feet, so near.
Mettle lunged toward her. She lifted her arms, reaching for Boden. Their hands met and clasped. Momentum and desperation swung her and Thomas up behind him.
"Kill him!" the old... man shrieked.
Mettle wheeled about.
Men loomed in the doorway, swords drawn. The exit was blocked, and terror reigned anew.
Boden spun Mettle about, spurring the steed toward the window.
He heard the old man scream for them to stop, but already they were flying through the air in a moment of breathless anticipation. Then Mettle's armor struck the window. Glass shattered, spraying shards in every direction. Men screamed. The earth lurched toward them. Mettle stumbled and dropped to his knees, then scrambled in the mud, trying to regain his feet.MoreLess
