Chapter 29

“Lizbeth?”

I crept into her room, but I didn’t need to. Her smile was wide and she looked fresh and rested like she was about to bound from her bed. “Kaitlyn!” She gestured for me to come to her and hugged me happily.

I said, “I have been so worried about you, but you look great.”

Her rounded stomach jutted under the sheets. Her bed was big and comfortable.

“Have ye met Madame Greer? She has sent me here tae rest though I daena need tae. But she is wise on everythin’ and whatever she tells me tae do, I do.”

“She made me pray this morning.”

She leveled her gaze on me. “Good,” she brushed her covers. “You listened tae her on it, she seemed pleased?”

I nodded.

“Good. She is on your side, Kaitlyn, she will protect ye as she can, but daena cross her. There are rumblings about ye. That Young Magnus is bein’ controlled by ye and ye are the cause of the Campbell war. But I am doin’ my best tae keep ye safe.”

“Thank you.” My mind was rolling with the trouble of it, what did they mean? Were people calling me a witch? I couldn’t even imagine what that meant – like a witch witch? But I was grateful to Lizbeth and Greer for their protection.

Lizbeth said, “Tell me what ye know of the weapons?”

I moved off the edge of her bed and pulled up a chair. “They’re from Donnan’s kingdom. Magnus’s father. I don’t know anything about them. He doesn’t know anything about them. I knew how to drive them only because my father taught me to ride a vehicle similar to that. It wasn’t a weapon, it was something to ride. It’s hard to explain. In the islands, where I’m from, they use something like that — teaching me to ride was like teaching your daughter to ride a horse. But the weapons, the men, I didn’t know them, and I didn’t know they would follow us with so much destruction. I am so sorry about it.”

Her hand went up to my cheek. “I imagine ye are, sweet Kaitlyn. I imagine ye are. I have seen ye chased with horrors that I couldna imagine and now I have seen them with m’own eyes. Tis terrible what they can do. And this is the same history Black Mac has told us, he was greatly missin’ ye both. How is Young Magnus?”

“His ribs are healed, but he is very worried about his family, especially Sean.”

She sighed. “I am worried about him too. He sent me from the castle though I begged him tae leave with us. He would nae listen tae me, twas the first time he wouldna listen tae me.”

“Magnus was wondering if he sent you away to protect you?”

She sighed again. “It has crossed my mind, but his place is with us, nae with the Earl and his aspirations, nae with this man, Commander Davis. His place is with us.”

“Magnus will meet with him, he will try to straighten it out.
