Devin was dragged into the room kicking and screaming. "Let me go you ass." She yelled. The guard let go of her gladly and left the room. Devin eyed the two men. She pulled her sword which the guard had overlooked and waved it threateningly. "You come near me and I'll run you through." She said. Fergus looked at her and laughed. "You'll be hurting yourself girl, put it down." He said. Douglas was in shock. "Meagan." He said. Fergus looked at him and back at his friend and then back at Devin. He grinned. This was Meagan's girl alright. Things were working out better than he expected. Devin was confused as to why the man had called her Meagan. Devin took advantage of their distraction to pin Fergus to the will with her sword. "I will kill you if I have to." She said in a deadly voice. "Girl looks like I have underestimated you." He said. Douglas got up and moved toward them. "Move one more step and I will run him though." Devin said. Fergus was laughing again. "I'd wager you drive your husband to distraction." He said. "I want to know where my husband is and my friend that was with me." She said. "Oh so the Englishman is with you." He said. "If you have harmed a hair on his head, I will kill you." She said. "She's a fiery lass just like her grandmother." Said Douglas. "What in the bloody hell are you talking about?" said Devin. Fergus quickly knocked the sword out of her hand. Devin backed up sure he would kill her. Fergus grabbed her chin and lifted her face to look at him. "Come here to rescue your husband did ye?" he asked. Devin met his steady gaze. "Yes I did." She said. "Do not worry lass your husband and friend are safe no harm will come to them." Fergus said. "Douglas isn't she a fiery brave lass? Though I'm sure your husband will be putting you across his knee for this stunt as well he should." Fergus said. "I want to see my husband right now." She demanded. "Aye that you will, but first Douglas needs to talk to you. I will leave you two and take your English friend to see Marcus." Fergus turned and left. Douglas motioned for Devin to come set beside him. "Come here child." He said. She walked over and set beside him. "You look so like your mother, but you have your grandmothers temperament." He said laughing. "Who are you?" she asked. "My daughter was Meagan McGregor." He said. Devin looked at him in shock. "You my grandfather." She said. "Aye that I am child." He said. "I often wondered over the years how you turned out." He said. "My daughter fancied her self in love with Lord William I had no choice but to let her go with him." He said. Devin looked down sad that she had never known her mother. "She wrote to me of her pregnancy child, she was so happy. She wanted you very much." Douglas said. "I hope your father treated you well." He said. Devin looked away from him. "My father hated me." She said. She told him of how she had been raised and the ill treatment she had received by her father. "I'm sorry Devin; I should have come after you." He said sadly. "You could not know how he was. Besides my life has been wonderful since I have married Marcus." She said. "Why did you kidnap Marcus?" she asked. "That was Fergus's doing. Marcus is his son. I knew that you were married to him. I was hoping he would send for you after he and Fergus worked things out. But you took care of that yourself." He said grinning. "How can this be, his father was Lord Calloway." She said. Douglas explained what had happened. She was in shock. Her husband was a Scott. She smiled she didn't care what he was as long as she was with him.
Byron sat with Marcus as he explained all that had transpired. He was in shock. "My friend, a Scotsman." He said laughing. "Believe me it's a shock to me also." Said Marcus. "What will you do?" he asked. "Fergus wants me to stay here and be Chieftain someday. I'm not actually rightfully due the title I have back in England. I'm not even English." Marcus said. "No one knows that my friend." Byron said. "I know Byron. I'm not sure what I'm going to do." He said. Byron nodded. "I have something to tell you Marcus, you're not going to like it." Byron said. "What is it." Marcus said having a bad feeling. "Devin is with me." He said. "WHAT! You brought her into danger not knowing what the hell was going to happen?" Marcus yelled. "Calm down, she's fine. I dint exactly let her do anything. She followed me for two days till I caught on. She refused to return so I took her with me to insure her safety." Byron said. "That little wench, wait till I get my hands on her." Marcus said. Fergus walked in. "I think ye will be wanting to see you lass no doubt." He said laughing. He told the men how Devin had got the best of him with her sword. Byron laughed and Marcus just shook his head. That was his Devin. "Yes take me to my wife; I'm eager to get a hold of her." Marcus said. Fergus laughed. "She's with her grandfather, who happens to be an old friend of mine." Fergus said. "Come I will tell ye al about it on the way down." He said. Marcus and Byron followed eager to hear how all this came about.
