CHAPTER

TWENTY-EIGHT

MacLeod Castle

“I’m no’ kidding when I say I’m about to toss that laptop in the ocean,” Logan growled from across the table.

Gwynn looked over the screen at her husband and grinned. “You can try, sweetie.”

“You’ve been on the wretched thing all night.”

“What’s the matter, Logan?” Hayden asked as he sauntered into the great hall from the kitchen. “You can no’ keep your wife in bed.”

Isla elbowed Hayden in the ribs. “I wouldn’t go there if I were you.”

Hayden laughed and tossed Isla up and over his shoulders. “Let me show you how it’s done, Logan.”

“Hayden Campbell, put me down now,” Isla said with a squeal.

Gwynn couldn’t contain her smile. “Isla, that might be effective if you weren’t smiling and rubbing his bum while you said it.”

“You all need a real man to show you how it’s done,” Galen said as he sat beside Logan and speared two sausages from Logan’s plate before dumping them onto his own.

Reaghan gave a loud snort as she walked from the kitchen. “Oh, you mean how you fell asleep watching The Wedding Date last night?”

“Baby, that’s no’ a real movie,” Galen said around a bite of sausage. “I need action.”

Gwynn exchanged a look with Isla who had taken the seat beside her after Hayden set her down. “Which I bet you might have gotten had you not fallen asleep.”

Everyone laughed, including Galen who raised his glass of juice to salute her. Gwynn looked around at her family. The gloom had been lifted from MacLeod Castle with Larena’s recovery, but there was still a cloud hanging over them.

“What is it?” Logan whispered.

Gwynn met his hazel eyes. “Evangeline Walker. The Web site she had talking about Druids and the necklace. Well … I’m not the only one who hacked it.”

“What?” Tara asked, rubbing her eyes as she walked down the stairs with Ramsey at her heels. “How do you know someone else hacked in?”

Gwynn shrugged. “It’s difficult to explain. It’s just things you see in the keystrokes logged in between this time and the last time I hacked it.”

Cara, Sonya, and Dani walked into the hall with large platters of food while Marcail and Saffron held pitchers of coffee and tea.

Roni walked to Tara and handed her a Coke. “Do you know who hacked the site?”

Gwynn shook her head as she caught sight of the others coming into the hall. “I’ve tried to see, but they covered their tracks well. Too well, in fact.”

“Which means what exactly?” Lucan asked.

Gwynn sighed and stretched her shoulders. “What it means is that whoever hacked into the site is a genius who makes no mistakes, or I’m not as good as I thought I was.”

If it was the latter, Gwynn had some work to do. She hadn’t started out as a hacker. In fact, it had come as a surprise, but the more she learned, the easier it was to do.

While some people could sing or draw or dance, she knew computer code. Her magic never came into place with her hacking, not that she wasn’t above using it if the occasion arose.
