Everyone ate in silence, and the Laird wondered if it was the calm before the storm. His silver, grey eyes roamed across the table where Blane was sitting, and he expelled a sigh. He knew that his sons heart was troubled, it was as plain as the nose on his face. His eldest son was in love with the wench and he was glad that the guests will start to arrive come morning. Mayhap, he thought, Oxana with her beauty will take Blane's mind off of the McCalister girl.
"Fool!" He muttered under his breath, can he not see that to love a Macalister spelled trouble?
Lady Milania folded her napkin and placed it on the wooden table. She too watched her son carefully from across the table and her heart melted. Her son was in love, and what a fine lass he has chosen, she thought, as she lifted herself to her feet and made her way out of the dining area and up the stairs. Lady Milania was a woman of God and held no enemies in her heart, she knew the McCalister's were innocent, and when Kainaaz comes back to them, her husband and Blane who are both stubborn mule's will regret hurting Asia, she just prayed that it will not be too late for her son to win Asia's heart. The young, will minded maiden reminded her of when she was young and in love with the Laird.
Opening the door, lady Milania walked inside Blane's chamber, and was shocked to find Asia's legs tied up to the bed post like an animal. "What in GOD's name has my son done to you?" She cried, as shame filled her heart that her son behaved like a beast.
Running to the bed, lady Milania tried to remove the chain's but could not, she even tried using the strongest of magic but to no avail, Blane had placed the most powerful magic over the chains and it was irreversible.
"I'm so sorry, my son usually doesn't act like a beast, he is so loving and kind, I just don't understand what has gotten into him." Lady Milania lied, knowing very well that her son's actions was just a cover up to hide his true feelings from everyone including himself.
The concern in Lady's Miliana's voice did nothing to help Asia, but when she the sparkle in her eyes, she wondered what the woman was up to. "Your son is a beast!" Asia lashed out angrilly surprising lady Milania with her sharp tongue.
"You might be just what my son needs," Lady Milania chuckled and took a step backwards. Her son needed to wake up and realize what a treasure the young maiden was, she thought, he was spoiled by all the maidens of their land and needed a tough woman to bring him back to reality and she knew that Asia was the one to get through to him. Blane might be tough on the outside but deep down inside she knew her son to be as soft as a teddy bear, he just needed the right kind of woman to come along and shake him up a bit.
Lady Milania had no doubt that Blane has finally met his true match. If her calculations are correct, Asia is his soulmate. Her mouth curved into a smile, her son will fall flat on his knees when he realizes who Asia really is. Closing the door behind her, Lady Miliana hurried along to find her husband. She couldn't wait to share her thoughts with him.

"Are you cold, can I get you a cape?" Blane asked April, concerned for her welfare.
"Nay, I'll be fine." April answered, even though there was a chill in the crispy night air.
Blane reached out and grabbed her hand, "Come, I want to show you something." He told her and pulled her gently through the gardens, where the autom leaves painted the cobbled pathway with colors of orange and crimson red.
"The grounds of Dukesworth are truly beautiful Blane." April said, and pulled away from Blane to pluck a camellia.
"Aye, tis is." Blane agreed, "you should see the gardens in the spring when all of mothers flowers are in full bloom."
"Blane?"
"Aye?"
"Where have you taken Asia?" April had stopped walking and turned to face the Druid.
Blane stiffened at the mention of Asia, all through the evening he tried to stop thoughts of her from invading his mind, but had no success, every breath he took, every thought in his head circled around the Druidess.
"Worry not of Asia, she will be delt with accordingly. Come, let me show you something!" He told her and grabbed her hand again and pulled her through the magical gardens of Dukesworth.
"This mangnificant structual jewel was built by my father for my mother on her twenty first birthday." Blane said proudly, "it was right here in this spot where my father asked my mother to marry her."
"How romantic!" April proclaimed, "I wish I had someone who loved me like that."
"You do April, Edward, your soulmate would give his life for you!" Blane assured her.
"What are you talking about, Edward doesn't love me, and even if he did, I would never be with that beast!"
Blane took a deep breath of inhalation, April was breathtaking beautiful and he had to keep reminding himself that she belonged to another. "Trust me April, he loves you, and he will come for you."
"If and when he does, I will not go with him!" April said angrilly, "Blane please, can you take me back home, I don't what to be here, I want to go back to America!"
"You don't belong there April, once you connect again with Edward, you will understand why."

Kainaaz signaled for Balloch to follow her up the back stairs of the hotel. When they made it to the fourth floor , the young maiden pulled out the key from her pocket and unlocked the door to her room.Balloch stepped inside after Kainaaz, there was a stillness about him as his turquoise eyes scanned around the room. He could smell her in this room, but he could also smell a males scent too. Narrowing his eyes, the Druid turned to stare at Kainaaz accusingly.
"What?" Kainaaz asked, not understanding why the mummy looked at her as if she done something wrong.
"You are married?" He asked in a sharp tone of voice.
"No I am not married, and what would you care if I was?" She asked, wondering what was up his ass.
Balloch raised an eye brow, "Then you are sleeping with someone "
Kainaaz felt him stiffen when she casually rested her hand on his shoulders. "No tut, I am not sleeping with anyone, and if I was that is not any of your Bussines!"
The warrior watched her walk to the window and he closed his eyes and took a moment to inhale one more time her sweet scent.
He was troubled as to why he even cared if she had a man or not, it's not like he would ever see her again once he returns to Scotland.
"Tut, you must get your sleep because tomorrow we will have a very busy schedule," Kainaaz realized what she had just said and chuckled, "oops I forgot that you have been sleeping for thousands of years and do not need to sleep again, I on the other hand am in need of much sleep. We should rest before the sun rises."
After brushing her teeth, Kainaaz changed into her pajamas and stepped out of the bathroom. She found tut had stripped himself of his kilt and lay naked in the huge king size bed.
The young maidens heart pumped wildly as her eyes took in the incredible, hot muscled body. "What the hell do you think you're doing tut! Get out of my bed!"
"Why? You said we have to rest."
Was Kainaaz dreaming or did she see a glint in the mummies eyes. And what was that swollen thing in between his legs!
Turning fifty shades of red, Kainaaz turned around and yelled, "At least cover yourself!"
The Druid smiled shamelessly and threw the ivory bed sheet over the lower part of his body. He wondered why she was upset when it was her that had said they should rest. She had initiated the invitation, had she regretted so soon or was she playing games, he wondered.
