With one quick breath, I could have been blown over with a feather. I don't know if it was a story he was telling me or the way his eyes kept dipping down to look at my lips like he wanted to kiss me.

I had to grip my skirts tightly to keep from reaching out and grabbing his shirt, and pulling him to me. Heat pooled in my lower belly, and I had to press my thighs together to try and ease some of the ache. I've never felt so much for one person in my life, let alone someone I've only just met.

“I hate to interrupt this wee moment you two seem to be having,” Ainslie says with a smug smile. “But I need to make my announcements to start the festival.”

"No one is stopping you," Colin grumbles at her, but his eyes never leave mine.

“I’m afraid I will need to take my assistant with me.” She takes my hand in hers.

“Your what?” Both Colin and I ask in unison.

She doesn’t answer but turns and pulls me with her up the steps of the makeshift stage and over to the microphone. I look out and see many of the villagers sitting on benches or standing around an open field, marked off by rope and netting.

Ainslie taps the mic, and a bit of feedback squeals out loudly, making us all wince a bit. She starts her speech, talking about the history of the festival and the Scottish traditions these events stem from, but I’m hardly able to focus on her words. I watch Colin as he makes his way over to a group of men standing in the open field. Each one is looking bigger and stronger than the next.

“As I’m sure many of you have noticed, we have a new addition to the festival this year.” She gestures to me.

I'm not sure what to do, so I give a quick awkward wave to the crowd. Many of the villagers clap politely, but some of the men standing in the field whistle loudly. I feel my cheeks burn with embarrassment. I wish she’d given me some kind of warning that she planned to include me on this whole Lady of the Loch gimmick. I’m not even sure why I’m standing here.

“In honor of our special addition to the festival, the winner of the games today will be rewarded with a kiss from our very own Lady of Loch Greer.”

My gaze locks with Colin’s. His mouth presses into a hard line, and he turns to glare at the kilted men making noises around him. I feel my heart plummet in my chest at his reaction. He's obviously unhappy with what Ainslie just announced. It figures the one man here I’d be willing to give a kiss to wants nothing to do with me.

Katherine never had that problem. I fume inwardly.
