“I fear I am lost,” he ground out.
“Then let me save ye.” There was a slight tremor in her jaw that showed
behind the strength, the teasing, she was vulnerable, too. But how? Why? “Now
go ahead and kiss me.”

go ahead and kiss me.”
“Kiss ye?” He stared at her lush lips, wanting more than anything to do what she asked.
“Aye. I did not entertain ye. Take your prize.”
Niall stared down at her creamy face, her wide blue eyes, and felt his body stir. She was so
beautiful. So cunning. So ornery. Lord, but he wanted her. Wanted to fight to prove he could
have her. To prove to her that he wasn’t broken. “A kiss from ye is not a prize, but a gift.”

“Then accept your gift,” she whispered.
Accept his gift. Accept the thing he’d dreamed about for nearly a decade. Niall bent and
brushed his lips over hers. At the sudden contact, she sucked in a breath through her nose,
and he instinctively tried to retreat, but she leaned into him.

“This time, I’ll need ye to be my lady,” he murmured.
“And ye will be my knight,” she whispered.
Tentatively, he touched her elbow, sliding his hand down to hers, entwining her
trembling fingers with his. He breathed in the heady, sweet scent of flowers and herbs.
Her lips were soft, warm and pliant. Sweet.

When had he last kissed a woman? He wasn’t certain. A year or more? And the kisses he’d

She blinked her eyes open, staring up at him. Dazed. “Will ye fight tomorrow?”
“I will, but not because your father made a marriage between us contingent upon it.
Not because ye asked me to.”

Bella nodded, all seriousness as she watched him. “I know.”
“What do ye know?”
Her hands pressed to his thumping heart. “I know ye’re a warrior.”
“I was. But I am no longer.”
“Ye are still. Ye were born to it. When I first met ye, ye were the only one confident
enough in your abilities to let a lass fight ye. Confident enough to let a lass name ye her lady.”

“Ye say confident. I say foolish.”
She smiled. “Just because ye’re impaired does not mean ye’re weak. If there is one thing I

warrior.”

Niall grunted. “Why do ye care so much?”
Bella blinked, then flashed him a radiant smile. “Just a little encouragement.”
He shook his head. “From what I know of ye, my lady, if I had to guess, I’d say ye dinna do

She laughed. “Ye flatter me, Sir Niall.” She tapped his chest. “In that case, I think we shall
