Haunted (Jamie Fraser)

This year marks my ninth at Lallybroch. I'm eight-and-twenty, now. The laird, whom I'd met when he was little more than a lad, has grown broad and strong as I have too, watching from my place beside him in the shadows. His gait and gaze are confident. He's become a kind man, a fiercely loyal head of his Clan. He's a leader now, but he has been for years. The title would suit none better, and he grew into it with grace and a steady hand, beloved by all.
"I will defend him," I think. "I will defend him from anything that might come for him and his." And what's more, I think I'm one of very few people in existence equipped for such a task.

This is an old fanfic I wrote about Jamie Fraser of Outlander(based on the tv series, havent read the books yet), just now getting it and a few others typed up to kinda see how people might feel about them in the future, but it is unfinished right now and I'm not sure if/when that will change. I just want to get the stories down somewhere before I lose them forever lol
