“I am. I’ve never been happier. But ye, on the other hand, look as though ye’re aboot to be ill.” He drew her from her chair and into his arms.
She leaned back, her hand resting protectively on her flat belly. “I’m delighted.” And she realized beneath her apprehension she truly was happy to be carrying Lachlan’s baby. A child that was part of them both—a child conceived in love, an extension of their love for one another.
He nuzzled her cheek. “Mayhap we should go home and I’ll show ye how happy I am.”
Enveloped in her husband’s embrace, knowing her friends would protect her son as fiercely as she did, her fear eased and her confidence returned.
As they said their good-byes, Evangeline decided the more women who stood with her to protect her son, the better. “Lachlan,” she said as they stepped through the standing stones, “I think it’s time for Fallyn and her sisters to open their school for women warriors.”
Lachlan stumbled into the Fae realm. “That’s no’ goin’ to happen. Fallyn and Broderick will soon wed and she’ll be openin’ her school in his kingdom.”
“Hmm, that’s true,” Evangeline said as they flashed to the palace. Lachlan held the gilded doors open for her. “But, you know, I think I shall speak to Riana and Shayla. Perhaps they would like to open a school in
our
kingdom.”
our
kingdom.”
Following her up the stairs, she heard him mutter something about God granting him the patience to deal with his expectant wife. Walking down the corridor to their chambers, he said, “I think ’tis time we had ourselves a wee chat.”
No, Evangeline thought, shutting the door to their chambers with a smile. She would be giving him the day-of-birth gift he’d requested earlier, and then they’d have their wee chat. In her experience, her husband was much more malleable after making love.
