“Begging yer pardon, m’lord, but I gave my word not to say anything, but only to ask ye to come down to yer study.”

“Campbell,” Lyon snarled. “Who is here?”

“This way, if ye please, m’lord.”

“I am in no mood for games at this bloody hour of the night,” Lyon growled fiercely, but the short, wiry steward did not appear bothered at all. Instead, he simply pushed the candle-bearing servant ahead of them down the hallway.

With the exception of the watchmen outside, the rest of the household had long ago retired to their beds. Coming down the grand staircase, Lyon could not—for the life of him—imagine who would be arriving so unexpectedly in the middle of the night.

It had to be someone that they knew, and reaching the ground floor, Lyon saw Mrs. MacAlister, wrapped in a blanket, disappearing with several servants in tow in the direction of the kitchens. It was someone Campbell had been happy to see. Someone who felt comfortable arriving unannounced. As Lyon reached the door of his study, the only one he could think of was Gibbs, his manservant who was now the steward at Melbury Hall. But the Highlander would never have left his new wife or his responsibilities in Hertfordshire to ride up here unless there was some trouble. And Campbell did not look like a man bringing news of trouble.

The servant with the candle opened the door, and Lyon pushed pst him into the study. The sight of the tall young man turning to face him by the crackling fireplace made Lyon’s heart leap into his throat.

“David! By the devil, ‘tis good to see you!”
