Catherine stopped trying to figure out how to wrap the plaid as Ian had shown her and stared at Robbie. �You�re kidding, right? Men don�t actuallysteal their wives.�

�Ian stole Gwyneth from the Macleries.�

�And the Macleries didn�t come after her?�

�Now, why would they want to do that? It�s a matter of pride when a daughter is chosen by a MacKeage warrior. The MacKeages are a powerful clan.�

�Does anyoneask the woman if she wants to get married?� Catherine muttered, trying again to adjust the plaid. �Darn it, I can�t get this right.�

Robbie stepped around the bush and took the end of the cloth from her, unwrapped it two wraps, settled it over her shoulders, and tucked it into her cleavage. He smiled when she gasped and took her in his arms and kissed her firmly on the mouth.

Catherine clung to him. She might not be ready to make love to the man, but kissing him back was definitely okay�since this was only a dream. So she surrendered to the need she�d bottled up inside her for so long, canted her head, and grabbed his hair, deepening the contact.

He lifted her off her feet with a satisfied groan and swept his tongue inside her mouth. She had a wonderful time exploring his taste while reveling in the feel of his powerful arms wrapped around her. His hand on her backside felt quite pleasant, too. And his noble intentions pushing into her belly compelled her to lift her knees and wrap her legs around his waist until she was nestled intimately against him.

He broke the kiss the moment she did that and looked down at her so fiercely that Catherine stopped breathing.

�You come alive at the most inopportune times,� he growled, letting her slide down his body until she was standing again. He shoved her head against his chest with a shuddering sigh and squeezed her tightly. �One of these times, I�m not going to care who�s around or what�s happening,� he continued over her head, his guttural voice rumbling under her cheek. �My noble intentions be damned.�

Catherine smiled into his chest. �I love it when a man talks romantic.�

He tilted her head back so she could look up at his scowl. �Every man has his limits, little Cat. And we�re about reaching mine.�

Her smile broadened. �Women have limits, too,� she said, reaching up and tapping the tip of his nose.

His arms tightened. �I�m having a hell of a time reading you, woman. One minute you� re a wary mouse, and the next minute you�re all but exploding in my arms.�

She stuck out her lower lip. �Then maybe you should quit kissing me.�

�Like that�s going to happen,� he muttered, lowering his head and capturing her mouth. �Catherine,� he said, once he was done kissing her again. �While we�re here, you only have to remember three things. That you carry your stick with you at all times and that you never go anywhere alone.�

�And the other thing?� she asked, kneading her fingers into his strong shoulders.
