Love Found: In the Scottish Highlands
Julie Madrigal was a mother of two children. Once she was legally separated from her ex-husband, she went to the only place she felt safe. The Scottish Highlands. Then again, she had only seen the place in books and videos, but the land called to her. And she wasn't expecting love. Duncan McLaren was the current Laird of the land. He was charming, helpful, and the epitome of a perfect man. Yet he hides a secret that would destroy the very thing he hold dear to his heart. Meeting Julie was kismet and he would gladly give up everything to be with her and the kids. But will love be enough to keep her? Or will the past destroy everything?
He Who Respects Her
The drive back to his house was silent. As much as I wanted to ask him about his sudden permission and the wedding thing, I wasn't ready to talk about it just yet.
"Five years away, and traffic still reigns," I said.
Dang, Manila to Quezon City traffic was never-ending. I could see some new infrastructures. But other than that, the only thing that added more where the cars that were on the road.
"Are you okay lass?"Duncan asked me. I was surprised that he had a car here. Given his ability to move from place to place. It would be better for him to use it and tag another person along. Alas, he cannot.
"Traffic," was all I could say.
"Ah yes, we don't have much back home. Inverness and other major cities have their share of traffic," he replied, he then took my hand ns placed it on his thigh before he asked again, "Are you okay?"
