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?
I heard a behind me, the moment Dexter left the mansion. I looked back and ran to help Fujin up. He was trying to sit on the gunnery as the bullets started to fall out of his body. We had to strip him off his shirt to make sure the holes were mending.
I watched in amazement as each of them knit closed. Ray must have shot him in the distance. None of the bullets were embedded that deeply. I breathed a sigh of relief. This was one of the perks of being Immortal. Normal bullets cannot kill you.
They hurt, at least you were not dead.
I helped Fujn stand up, I was shorter than him, so you could only imagine how we looked like. My arms were around his waist, helping Fujin walk upright. When we reached the kitchen, he sat on one of the stools. I quickly threw something in the microwave for him to eat.
