Chapter One
Broch Dubh Keep
Lairig Dubh, in the west of Scotland
Summer, AD 1370
There is a thief afoot in Lairig Dubh.
Connor MacLerie, laird of the clan and Earl of Douran, checked his strongbox again. The lock held even when he tugged on it, proving he had secured it, but he knew it had been moved from the smudges in the dust around it. Connor turned to his most trusted men, Duncan, the man who watched over the extensive financial concerns of the Clan MacLerie, and Rurik, who was responsible for the safety of the clan, in war and in peace. Both men reacted as he thought they would.
Here? Under our noses?
Rurik asked as he stepped closer to peer over Connor’s shoulder at the box that held all the important documents and records of the Clan MacLerie. Rurik was one of few who was tall enough to make Connor feel short. Nay, no one enters the keep without my approval.
Is anything missing?
Duncan asked, crossing his arms over his chest. Always pragmatic, Duncan raised his chin and studied the lock. I just reviewed several agreements last week.
Nay, not that I can tell, Duncan. Once more they have only just ruffled through them and left everything. Intact.
He’d even asked Jocelyn if any keys had gone missing from her ring, but she’d said not.
Duncan shook his head. That makes no sense at all. Why bother breaking into the box and taking the chance they’ll be caught if they did not want something from it?
Or they did not find what they were looking for?
Rurik asked. How many times has this happened?
Connor motioned for them to follow him back into the main room of his, and Jocelyn’s, chambers before answering them.
I noticed it first a few months and thought I’d done it. But four times now it has happened, the last one only days ago.
And considering the wedding feast on the morrow that will bring many visitors to the village and keep, that is suspicious timing,
Rurik added, his brow furrowed and his gaze dark.
Be on guard, Rurik. This chamber is not to be entered by anyone. I will move these…
The door burst open and Jocelyn stood there, eyes wide and out of breath.
Though married now for nearly two decades, she yet took his breath away. Nary a gray hair marred the darker shades of her auburn locks and her green eyes still gleamed with life. Bearing his bairns had softened her body, but his readied now even as it did whenever he saw her. Though he feared a day when he did not react so, it had not happened yet and she’d asked if he would be randy into his old age! God willing, aye, he would…for her.
Jocelyn?
he asked. She looked startled at finding them there and pasted a smile on her face that did not reach her eyes. Is aught wrong?
Nay, Connor,
she stammered out. Good day, Duncan. Rurik,
she acknowledged the others with a nod at each. In spite of her words, Connor knew something was amiss. She avoided his gaze, remaining at the door and speaking to the others.
