Alys tripped into the family solar with the light step of a girl half her age. Owain rose at her entrance. His face was marred by a frown. Alys couldn’t help but think he’d been handsome when he was younger. Sweet Mary, he was still a fine figure of a man.

“Well, how goes it?” he asked.

Alys cleared her throat and pushed aside her wanton thoughts. A woman her age for heaven’s sake!

“My lady said all was well between them. And they’ve not emerged yet, so one can assume they are, er, getting along…”

She thought Owain’s ears were red when he turned away. “ ‘Tis good then. I was afraid…”

Alys went to him, laid a hand on his shoulder. “Don’t fret. Gwenllian is stubborn, but sensible all the same. It came as a shock to her, was all.”

Owain took her hand in his. “Richard needs a woman who’ll stand up to him for a change. He’s entirely too used to being lord and master of all he surveys.”

Alys squeezed his hand. “I should be going. I have a million things to do.”

Owain cleared his throat, then brushed off his tunic self-consciously. “Stay a while, Alys. If all is indeed well with the young ones, they’ll not emerge for some time being newlyweds and all.” He coughed, his ears going red again.

Alys smiled. There was nothing she would like better than to stay and talk to this handsome Welshman. “Very well, Owain, I imagine I can spare a minute or two.”
