AT HIS REQUEST, ALL the unmarried men who wished to find a wife in England gathered just after the noon meal, and when Neil stepped outside the Keep, he was not surprised by the sizeable number. He chuckled and leaned closer to Walrick. “Have we anyone left on guard?” He enjoyed Walrick’s grin and then turned to the men. “I will take only twenty, therefore you must draw lots. Gelson will...”

“Wait!” In the back of the men, Slava shoved one man one-way and a second one another, so she could get closer. As soon as she found Feargon MacClurg, she got in front of him and began pushing him from the courtyard. “You are not leaving.”

Feargon held his chin high and pretended to resist. “Ah but I am. You will not have me, so I go to find a wife in England.”

“In that case I have changed my mind, I will marry you.” She threw her arms around his neck and kissed him full on the lips, ignoring the laughter and the cheers from all the other men.

Neil watched the young couple hold hands and run away from the crowd before he continued, “We leave in two days.” He stayed to watch the men draw lots and made note of the particular skills of the men he was taking. They were about to cross hostile Scottish territory and then enter England. The men had to be strong, well trained and have their wits about them at all times. When the lots were drawn, Neil heaved a sigh of relief. He found no reason to turn any of them down. However, he did have one problem and he had no idea how to solve it.
