Iris pov

I watched my sister walking on egg shells. It was rather funny but also kinda sad. "Your sister doesn't know Calum knows? Why don't you tell her lass?" Jamie said pulling me out of my thoughts, with a bit of a jump making him chuckle. "Sorry lass didn't mean to scare you." I smack him lightly. "I want to see how long it will take. I don't like her getting close to Galis. That woman is nothing but truble. Also Leary tried to poison me again. I haven't been back a day, and she is trying to have a go at me." I said the last part only to have the bitch in question walk in. "Only a witch would know the difference. I swear to you your days are numbered whor." She said only to be slapped by Jamie. "You ever try to hurt her again. I will have you dragged infront of everyone and whipped. You understand me lass?" Jamie spoke as Leary held her cheek. She nods and walks away in tears. "I'll have a word with my uncle. This can't go on anymore, your to close to delivery. Dumb little love sick whore." He said leaving angry. I turn my attention back to my sister only to see her with Galis. "You want something done, Do it yourself." I said before walking out into the garden. "Galis I want you to keep away from her." I said standing between them. "Oh and who gave you the authority to ,decide who she talks too." She counters making me slap her. "As someone that knows what you are. It's my job to keep her safe. Now heed my warning or I'll have you burn." I said before pulling Clair away. When we were far enough away, she jurked her hand away. "What was that about. Galis and I were only talking." She said confused I don't blame her. "She is bad company Clair. She is known as a whitch and if you are seen with her....You will be brand as one too." I said but like always thick headed. "Thats ridiculous this whole thing is ridiculous. Iris the sooner we get home the better." I looked at her sad. "I don't think I can anymore Clair. The baby is not the Jamie you know in our time. When you go back say you got away ,but they killed me for protecting you. I can't leave Jamie not this time." I said making her stair at me stunned. "You love him don't you? Yet you promised another man you would wed him. Frank was right your a Scottish whore." She said before covering her mouth. She tried to apologize but I was walking away. "Do what you want Clair. I won't stop you I have no right to do so." I said hurt.
