Excerpt:
Torr took her reaction
in stride and began a tender assault on her neck.
She pushed against him,
and he allowed her a little space. She was grateful because despite her
training, she doubted she could do much to take down such a huge man, especially
if she didn’t want to hurt him. But he kept his arms about her waist.
“What is it, lass?”
It was everything. She
wanted to cry and laugh at the impossible situation she found herself in, even
as her body shivered with a growing need. She simply shook her head and tried
to step back, but he held her with gentle strength.
Didn’t he understand?
She needed to put more space between them, in so many ways. Her breaths came
quickly, her body flushed from the desire he’d ignited. A desire she never
remembered experiencing before. She closed her eyes and tried to think of the
rolling mountains beyond the castle walls, but they faded quickly and instead
she envisioned Torr, cupping her breasts.
She snapped open her
eyes to find him staring at her, a crooked grin on his face.
“I want ye, Diana. Ye
have a fire in ye that calls me like the spring sun to the seedling.”
Oh, Shakespeare, now he
was a poet, too? She couldn’t do this. He was due to die… She had to find the
Disruptor… She had to—
His deep voice soothed
her. “I understand. Life here at Gealach is new and strange, and I have
possibly presumed too much, too soon. Ye miss yer clan, do ye not?”
She didn’t say
anything, his kindness causing a lump to form in her throat. His warm, big body
so close to hers with the scent of leather and the clean smell from his bath
was so primitively male, he had her feeling safe, protected.
He pulled her body
against his again. Instead of feeling physical attraction, she wanted to simply
snuggle in. Hesitantly, she let her head fall against his shoulder.
As they stood there,
his chest rising and falling in steady rhythm beneath her cheek, memories of
her dad doing the same calmed her. When she’d done poorly on a test, not made
the volleyball team, or when she was dumped by her first boyfriend in ninth
grade, Dad had held her just like this. Torr would make a good father…except he
was destined to die.
She stiffened. Did Torr
have any children after the Disruptor saved him? He deserved children.
He reacted to her body language
and stroked her back. “I know it is hard. I too have lost many of my family.”
She pulled back to look
at his face, anxious to hear what he’d reveal.
“Unlike ye, I didn’t
know my mother. She died shortly after Kerr was born. Five sons took too much
out of her. But my brothers and my father made a family.”
She put her hand on his
chest, feeling the sadness behind his words. This man deserved comfort more
than she did. He had endured so much and yet still offered more to others.
He covered her hand with
his and sighed. “The war has taken all but Kerr from me. Him and the few left
in our wee clan. I’m glad ye joined us. I hope ye will eventually feel this is
yer home.” His inner sadness called to her in a different way from his
persuasive sexual advances. In that moment, he touched her heart.
“I’m sure I will. It is
the only home I have now.” She grimaced inside at such a bald-faced lie.
