Chapter 4

Unadulterated pleasure had raced through Fiona as Coll’s cock had throbbed in her hand. He’d touched her, so intimately and her inner channel had pulsed around his fingers. More than anything she’d wanted him to claim her fully, for him to join them in the way of those within the bond.

“We’re not doing this again.” Gruff words as he continued to gently caress her within. “Are you all right?”

“I’m wonderful, but could of course be better. Come inside me, please.”

“What I need to do is put some distance between us.” Chest heaving and his breath still coming fast, he pitched to his side and flopped onto his back next to her. One long minute passed before he moved, then when he did it wasn’t to pull her into his arms as she’d hoped. Instead, he righted his pants, fixed her skirts and bodice with a brisk touch then crawled even farther away to the other side of the fire. Once there, he moved into a crouch as if unsure whether he wished to bolt or not.

“Stay.” She pushed herself upright into a seated position and searched his gaze. “Tell me what you’re thinking.”

“I never intended for what just happened, to happen. You make me lose all rational thought.” He glanced into the darkened tree line. “I certainly didnae ride out after you this day so I might ravish you again once I’d found you.”

“I wanted to be ravished, still want to be ravished.”

“So I noticed.” He gritted his teeth, in that way he always did when he got completely obstinate. “’Tis been a long day and we both need some time apart. Wait here while I find Duncan and Ella.” He heaved to his feet and stormed into the trees.

“Coll, wait!” But he didn’t. He disappeared so fast.

Damn it. How frustrating. This bond could be so annoying and completely aggravating, and why on earth had she been given such a stubborn mate? First, her chosen one had been honor-bound to wed Kyla, and now he remained honor-bound to wed the Chief of MacRae’s daughter.

’Tis time for Coll and you to both accept your destiny. No more will I permit him to ignore your mated bond. He allowed you to wed another, even now intends on speaking vows with a lass he does no’ care for, and that I cannae permit. Setting you aside a second time is unacceptable, and since you’ve begun the hunt, you must now ensure he sees it fully through.

Cherub’s words echoed through her mind.

Aye, she’d continue the hunt, and force Coll to see this chase through.

She shoved to her feet, snatched her satchel, slung it over one shoulder then with the sides of her black fur cloak pulled tighter around her, stormed off into the dark. She marched toward Loch Carron and back toward Coll’s land. Aye, no more would she travel toward her father, not when he’d soon see her wed to another man and that she couldn’t have.

She followed the river as it
