Chapter Twelve

“What happened?” Cairn stalked into Lilia’s bedchamber. “I thought ye planned to go to him last night.”

Lilia glared at him. “He is not interested in me any longer. I have to find another lover. I cannot return to the measly village.” There was a desperation in her that made him itch. The woman had little worth other than her body. A commodity that did not last long.

“Perhaps ye should try a different approach, be softer,” Cairn said.

With a calculating gaze, Lilia looked about the room. “I saw it in his face. Heard it in his tone. Darach has already let me go.”

“Ye should seduce a dumb sap and get married. Else the laird will send ye away and ye’ll find yerself without a sponsor.”

“Do not dare to tell me what I should do. I have plans, but first I will ruin any chance at their happiness.”

Cairn neared and grabbed her wrists, pulling her up from the bed. “See that ye do and soon. I have it from a credible source that she is not happy with him at the moment. This would be a perfect time.”
