Beyond Reason (25 page)
Authors: Gwen Kirkwood
‘It is wonderful to be home at last and amongst so many friends,’ Fingal said later that evening. ‘But I thought I would never get my beautiful bride to myself,’ he added softly, drawing Janet into his arms and lifting her onto the big feather mattress. He was almost certain Josiah had never consummated his marriage to Janet but he was less sure whether she had suffered at the brutal hands of Wull Foster the night she had run away from Braeheights. It was a subject he had avoided but he vowed he would be gentle and patient with her. He was rewarded with wonder and delight when he discovered his bride was his, and only his, and a passionately responsive and loving wife.
