Chapter 11

Garrett rolled over in bed, having had the best night sleep in a long time. Last night with Echo was amazing, and he would never forget it as long as he lived. With his eyes still closed, he thought of the caring, tender side of her he’d experienced and then the rough exciting side as well.

She was an amazing woman, and she was also his wife. He felt bad about getting so upset with her, and knew now that she was really trying to be a lady even if it wasn’t working as well as it should. But what did he expect? She’d lived with whores and pirates her entire life, not the proper, gentle ways of being fostered by a noble.

She’d touched his scarred face and even kissed it. No woman other than a pirate would say she admired his scar for what it represented. Most women would say he was ugly and deformed, but she saw it as a notch on a sword so to speak. An act of courage and loyalty, not a mark of defeat as he’d seen it for the last year. He thought of the man who’d given it to him and could say he didn’t regret that the bastard Gruffydd was dead, killed by one of his own.

It was odd that her father had killed him. Almost like it had something to do with him not wanting Echo to know that he’d sent a man to find Madoc. He didn’t understand the connection, and couldn’t quite remember the story behind Madoc being a thief one day and a lord the next. He vaguely remembered something about a ring, and Madoc being stolen as a baby. What else was it? He tried hard to remember.

“Cap’n,” Garrett said aloud, sitting upright and opening his eyes, thinking of the incident on the Seahawk. Could Echo’s father have something to do with Madoc? Why was it he wanted Gruffydd to find the man?

Damn, he wished he would have listened more carefully upon hearing Madoc’s story. But at the time, he’d about had his face torn off from the tip of Gruffydd’s sword, and wasn’t listening to family reunions, but rather wondering if he would bleed to death instead. But it was a small price to pay since Madoc had saved him from the gallows. Oh well, he would ask his sister Abbey about it next time he saw her.

He looked around the room, but Echo was gone and so were her clothes. He had to find her fast. Who knew what trouble this woman would be getting into next.
