Mairead watched as Thom began to perform. It surprised her that the messenger would have any interest in making music. But then the strains lifted into the air, and penetrated the deep recesses of her being. She looked at him with wonder. How could a man who was so large and intimidating handle a delicate device with such ease and depth of feeling? It was the same simple object that Makolm played, yet when Thom performed it, the music sounded different. The music contained a haunting beauty, as if pain, sorrow, grief and passion weaved in and out of the notes.

She got up from her seat and moved closer to him. He continued to play as if he was possessed by the melodies.

“Thom?” she said.

“Aye?” His eyes opened abruptly, and he blinked as if he tried to remember where he was. She hesitated, unsure whether she should have disturbed him. But she realized that she had already broken the spell. She yearned to hear more music, and she instinctively knew that he would perform beautifully.

“Will ye play Findley’s Lass?” She held her breath, half expecting his refusal.

“All right,” he said.

The breath in her lungs burst out in a rush. Mairead let out a happy sound and settled down across from him.

Thom dropped his gaze to the lute as his fingers glided over the strings, his stroking movements caressing the cords as if it was a lover. As soon as his deep, masculine voice drifted into the air, she felt her heart go still. His smooth voice flowed into her, and she wrapped her arms around herself as she listened to the lyrics.
