The next few days were spent in the turmoil of the wedding preparations.Skye and Hector had been unable to meet each other alone since the day of their walk to the garden. They only saw each other at mealtime when they sat all together in the dining room.Beside her, Hector reassured her with his gaze and sometimes managed to squeeze her hand under the table.The day that Hector and Skye had spent in the garden, they had eaten some of the food the maids had brought them, and they returned to the castle. One of the maids escorted Skye to her chamber while Hector went to the library.In the chamber, was Maysie, who greeted her with enthusiasm and asked to know how her time with her future husband was. Her eyes were so bright and full of anticipation that Skye didn't deny her. She chose only what she could tell her without betraying the trust Hector had placed in her.She confided in her about the kiss they shared, leaving Maysie wide-eyed and asking for more details.But Skye wanted to

The ceremony was to take place in the nearby village church of Brora, which was 5 miles from the castle and was arranged for 11 am, so they would have the rest of the day to celebrate the event.Since the early hours of the morning, Skye had been awake. She felt a heavy sense of regret that kept her from getting a good night's rest. The upcoming day was going to be a grueling one. How will she manage to get through the day after hardly sleeping last night?Thoughts tormented her, and her regrets consumed her guts for not being able to tell Hector what her heart needed to tell him; she had kept her secret inside for years. She knew it wasn't her fault for not being alone with him the last few days, not even for a moment. Despite this, she couldn't help feeling the way she did and was convinced that she should have found a way to meet him.She had already taken her bath and sat on her dressing table to have her hair done, wearing a simple white dress.Talisha looked at her through the m

Skye lifted the edges of her lips, but the smile didn’t reach her eyes. Would he still hold the same opinion once she revealed what she wanted to share with him?"What are you two whispering about? Has the bride changed her mind?" Donncha asked. Queen Aine stared at him with a grim expression. Donncha forced a smile, but his gaze held a hint of sarcasm.King Cinaed observed his guests from his distinct and elevated position, and he noticed that some attendees offered polite smiles while others shifted uncomfortably in their seats, pursing their lips. He let out a heavy sigh and rubbed his forehead in frustration."Oh, Donncha, this is no time for your jokes," Roisin said with a giggle to lighten the mood.Hector tightened his grip on Skye's hand and whispered. "Don't pay attention," he told her, and Skye nodded.Finally, Hector addressed the priest, "You may begin."The priest lifted his hands and blessed the gathering. He was of average height and had lost his youthful appearance a l

"Or I will," a young man said and stood up. "Or I will," said someone else. "Or I will," someone else cried out. "Or I will" More young men continued to offer. "What's going on?" Skye asked, confused. She looked at the young men who had risen from their seats among the rest of the guests and then over at Hector, hoping for an explanation. Her palms began to sweat as she considered whether she was expected to kiss all of them. No! That was out of the question. She looked inward and blinked rapidly. Hector sensed her unease and hastened to reassure her. "It's not what you think. It is simply a playful tradition between the clans we're on amicable terms with, and it only takes effect when there's a delay in the groom kissing the bride. They will continue until I kiss you." She felt her mouth go dry. "Th-then kiss me." Skye said. Hector smiled, hugging the side of her neck and gently pulling her towards him until their lips met. His lips pressed hers in an unspoken promise. Hi

Her lips were warm and welcoming.His kiss was slow, wet, and coaxing for something more than just a deep touch between their lips.He captured her lips, kissing and sucking them, hoping the door to heaven would finally open to welcome his besieger.He kissed her slowly, with an intensity that was dreamlike and erotic. Hector couldn't stand any longer being so close to heaven and not being able to taste it.He was okay with the fact that Skye was utterly inexperienced. On the contrary, he loved that he would become her teacher exploring love.His experience with women – for as a man, he had his experiences, not many, but there was part of his past – had taught him to recognize an inexperienced girl.When he was younger, he made a valiant effort to abstain from any impure behavior for the sake of his loved one. He managed to do so until he reached the age of nineteen. As he progressed from being a boy to a man, his body underwent changes that brought forth natural needs that every man

His playful smirk and glinting eyes stirred a distant memory within her.Skye gasped, and her eyes grew wide upon recognizing the man."Oh, it's you!" she exclaimed. "I-I think I remember you."The man chuckled and nodded."It's been five years since we last met.""I apologize, but I can't recall your name," she admitted."It makes sense that there were no recommendations made since I left your uncle's castle immediately after the incident. We didn't even sit down for dinner," the man replied. Skye thought about it for a moment and agreed."Do you two know each other?" Hector asked, fixing his eyes on the man."Um...kind of," Skye replied."Cael? Explain," Hector said sternly."Please, Hector, there's no need," Skye interjected, attempting to pull him away, but he remained rooted in place like a rock."Just one moment, Skye. I need to know," he said, closing her hand in his. "What did Cael do to you? What event did he speak of?" His voice and expression grew hard with anger at the tho

The smile slid across his lips easily. "Are you sure?" Hector asked as he stepped closer and touched her cheek.Skye nodded again.Hector slid his hand behind her neck and pulled her towards him, his lips crushed against hers in a warm kiss full of longing.As their lips touched, he conveyed a message of unconditional love to her. His love was like an unobstructed, vast green meadow, and nothing could shake the firm foundation of his love. It was unbreakable and everlasting.His blistering kiss set fire to her soul, causing her to forget everything else – the surrounding guests, their conversations and amusement, and the staff constantly attending to their needs. A haze overtook her thoughts, blurring out the world beyond.The kiss continued uninterrupted as Hector's hands held her jaw and neck, gently pressing her against his lips.As Skye's palms rested on his chest, they were lost in an intoxicating kiss that made them forget about time and space. They were wholly devoted to each o

Meegan looked at her with a smile. "Hmm…You care about him, don't you?" she asked. "Yes, I do care," Skye replied, still looking at Hector. She recognized his position, with his hands behind his back, as she had seen before. Despite his predicament, he appeared at ease and collected. When he caught her eye, he gave a reassuring nod, indicating that she need not worry and could leave him for a bit. Skye nodded and turned her attention back to Meegan, smiling. "Okay, let's talk for a while. What about your marriage to...?" She paused, cupping her forehead. "I'm sorry, I forgot his name." Meegan giggled quietly and said, "His name is Oisin." "Ah, I remember now. So, how did the wedding go? Is everything going well between you two?" I inquired. Meegan's face brightened, and her cheeks turned pink. "It has only been three weeks since the wedding, but I can tell he is the best man I could have asked for." She replied with a smile. Skye gently rubbed her arm. "I'm happy for you and I ho

"Wait, Toren," Malcolm called, but Toren continued without looking back.Fiona leaned out the carriage window, her eyes narrowing. "What should we do now?" she asked her husband, her voice tinged with frustration."Moving on alone is our only option," Malcolm said, pressing his lips together thoughtfully."Let's move on, then. The noise here is dizzying," she said, squeezing her temples with a pained expression.Around them, the square buzzed with activity. Merchants hawking their goods, horses clattering on cobblestones, and the distant melody of a street musician's lute created a cacophony. The air was thick with freshly baked bread, mingling with the earthy aroma of vegetables and the tang of salted fish.Several moments passed without the carriage moving. Fiona glanced at Iona, her jaw clenched. "What is your father doing?" she asked, her voice tight."I don't know," Iona shrugged, her eyes wide with uncertainty."Stay here. I'll see what's happening," Fiona said, pushing the carr

Iona looked at her mother as she approached. She stood up, clutching the fabric of her skirt in her fists. Fiona was unhappy with the situation, her eyes wide, face red, and lips pursed."Oh, mother, I hope nothing went wrong in there . . .""Did you hear how he talked to me?" Fiona hissed at a low volume, interrupting her as if she hadn't heard anything she had said."He is uncouth, rude, and a boor," she continued in a low yet intense voice. Fiona paced back and forth; every time she turned, she violently kicked back her skirt as it gathered around her legs."Mother, please remain calm. You're right, but they must not perceive your anger. Remember, we rely on them. We must not upset them, or they might leave."Fiona stopped short in front of her, very close to her face. "I know," she replied. "That alone prevented me from causing a scene."A droplet of saliva flew from her mouth and landed on Iona's left cheek, just below her eye.Fiona began pacing back and forth again, and Iona se

Castle Eilean Donan: The UnexpectedThe day started with bleak gray clouds obscuring the sky. As winter approached, the sun had become a rare sight, and the chill in the air grew increasingly biting. Fiona held Iona by the shoulders, tightening her grip as Malcolm rode through the castle courtyard door. The echoing of the horse's hooves on the hard ground slowly faded. "Be careful," Fiona whispered. Tears welled as she watched him cross the narrow bridge connecting the castle to the mainland. They stood there until his figure disappeared behind the trees. "Let's go inside, mother. I'm frozen," Iona complained, clutching her cape tightly to protect herself from the cold wind."Yes, let's go," Fiona agreed. They headed towards the large wooden door, which was wide open, waiting for them. Fiona shut the heavy door and wiped the tears from her eyes. What would she do without Malcolm? He was left alone, unaccompanied. If he was attacked on the street, he could hardly get through on his o

Eilean Donan Castle: Iona's RegretMeanwhile, Malcolm's family endured a miserable life at Eilean Donan Castle. It was a daily struggle for everyone, especially Iona, who regretted hastily throwing away the broken glasses. Now, she also had to assist with the daily chores.Two days later, after disposing of the shards of glass, the doctor concluded that the wounds were healing normally. He assured the parents that the little girl would be fine before leaving, annoyed by their exaggerated urgency compared to more serious incidents.A few days ago, when she expressed her desire to destroy Skye by taking her husband, Iona believed they would quickly leave the castle. She was convinced that her parents also wanted to take revenge for everything that had happened to them because of Skye. Still, much to her great dismay, things differed from what she had in mind. Days passed without her father telling her anything about this issue.What the hell was going on? She had to learn. Her thoughts

Eithne studied Hector, her gaze lingering on the contours of his face. His features were familiar—the strong jawline, the scar that traced a jagged path across his cheek. She furrowed her brows in concentration, trying to pinpoint the change. "Hmm... Anything different about Hector?" she muttered as she observed him."No," Eithne concluded, shaking her head. I don't see anything different.""Oh, come on, Eithne. Focus. It's impossible to miss it, trust me," Skye urged her.Eithne looked at Hector once more and sighed in defeat. "I really don't see anything different, Skye. Please, just tell me.""Okay, he's not wearing his mask," Skye exclaimed."Oh! That's right. Maybe it's because I've been seeing him without a mask for years and I didn't realize it now. He only started wearing a mask recently." Eithne said.Skye raised her eyebrows. "Oh, really? It's only been for a while? And why is that?" She turned and looked at him."For you." Hector answered.His unexpected answer caught her

"Talisha, finally!" Hector said as he stood up. Skye rose beside him."Oh, my beloved ones!" Talisha exclaimed, joining her palms in a prayer position at the height of her chest. Her eyes shimmered with unshed tears. "I am so happy to see both of you together! Based on your faces full of happiness, I assume everything is going well between you," she said, gazing at them.A smile graced their faces. "Yes, everything is fine." They replied, even though it was obvious that Talisha was aware of everything. Most likely, she was seeking confirmation of what she had heard.How? Wasn't it already obvious? Only one person could tell. "Oh, Maysie!" Skye thought."Do you know where Maysie is, Talisha?" Skye asked her."Yes, she is in the kitchen. She helps out there.""You already knew what was going on, right Talisha?" Hector asked. "Maybe from Maysie?"Talisha looked at Skye. "Yes," she replied, "but please, Skye, don't scold her for spoiling your joy by saying the news before you do. Her exci

Skye furrowed her brows in bewilderment. When did this happen? And where was she? Maybe it was during the days they were apart? One of the days he spent with Eithne? She shook her head in the negative. No way, that's out of the question, because when she saw him standing outside her door, he didn't look like someone who had recently met the best day of his life.Then, which day did he mean? Did it occur before they were apart? But if that were the case, wouldn't he tell her? Sure, he would, but maybe he forgot to say to her. Ugh, she couldn't make sense of it. Her mind had become a tangle of assumptions.She studied his expression more carefully, hoping to draw a better conclusion.He folded his arms across his chest and observed her ever-changing expression. He was sure that something was brewing in her mind.Skye didn't draw any conclusions from his manner. She chose to stop thinking and let him reveal the information himself. Her heart started pounding; she feared what she was abou

His aroused nature pressed against the center of her femininity, and Skye moaned deep in her throat.His kilt was the only thing that prevented them from becoming one."Just a moment," he whispered, kissing her and pulling away."Where..." she started to complain.Hector stabilized his body with swift movements, placing his knee between her legs.He grabbed the chemise by the neckline and tore it off in one swift movement.Although he aimed to tear it up to the navel, the tearing reached down her belly.Her breasts spilled out. White, round, full and firm. Their pink tops stood erect.Hector groaned. "You are so beautiful," he whispered with his heaven in front of him.Skye noticed his expression, full of lust and craving. Her gaze fell just below his waist, where his kilt showcased a prominent bulge. She felt her cheeks burn at the thought that she was causing this for him.His hands left the torn garment and slid them over her skin - over her belly and stomach, then circled her brea

"What?!" Her eyes widened, "A-are you sure?" she swallowed hard.The corner of his lips lifted. "I am. Are you?""I-I don't think I ever will be," she said, her throat drying and her breath hitching. She balled her hands into fists, trapping fabric from the sheet."But I've explained it to you," Hector said."I-I know." she stammered."So, shall I guess that you don't believe me?""I do believe you, Hector. But it is beyond my strength. I can't control it.""I'll help you with that. I will make you forget it completely," he said, then softly kissing her. He moved down on her chin and throat, where he found the spot of her pulse, and pressed his lips to it more. Her pulse kicked his lips, and he felt it as it began to pick up speed.A sweet euphoria filled his heart, knowing that her heart had also made room for him.He kissed the spot gently and moved downward, his fingers tracing the smoothness of the bare skin at her neckline and moving to her breasts. His fingertips traced the outl
