On a good day, Malcolm Niall hated parties.
And people.
And peopling.
Today was about as far from a good day as it was possible to get.
How could anybody expect him to celebrate anything on The
Anniversary? Not that anyone here was aware of the significance of the
date. The one person who knew had willfully disappeared without a trace.
Malcolm didn’t allow himself to think about young Afton Lennox. She was
just another person he’d failed. The former Baroness of Lochmara had
escaped from the prospect of an arranged marriage by gambling away her
entire estate and title to an American. Raleigh Beaumont.
No one had expected Raleigh to stick once he found out about the
centuries-old marriage pact that meant he had to marry Kyla MacKean,
heiress to the neighboring estate of Ardinmuir, or lose Lochmara entirely.
Instead, the two had eloped and, shockingly, actually fallen for each other.
Malcolm had known Kyla since she was a wee girl, as he did her brother,
Connor, who’d been meant to wed Afton. Kyla and Raleigh did actually
seem to suit each other, which was one of the few silver linings to the chaos
of the past months.
She was currently distracting her husband from the surprise birthday
party being set up here on the grounds.
Malcolm had wanted to dislike the Yank on principle, but he was forced
to admit—at least to himself—that his new boss was not at all what he’d
expected. The man was a hard worker and had a heart the size of his native
Texas, maybe because he’d grown up as part of a ranching family. He
could’ve come in and made a boatload of changes to the estate and how it
ran. Instead, he’d taken a learner’s mindset, seeing how things were done
here in Scotland and respecting Malcolm’s near twenty years of expertise as
the estate manager. On top of that, Raleigh had invested in the ventures of a
number of his tenants, allowing them to expand their various businesses.
But his few months of observation were apparently over, and he was
beginning to make changes with an eye toward longevity and
environmental sustainability for the future of the estate. Malcolm was a
man of nature, so he could appreciate Raleigh’s motivation, but why the
bloody hell did everything have to change right now? Hadn’t there been
enough upheaval?
“Put that table over there, will you darlin’? We’re gonna bring out the
appetizers here in a little bit.”
The sound of that easy Southern drawl had Malcolm’s shoulders
twitching tight with irritation, even as his gaze was pulled toward the tiny
Latina spitfire who’d made his life one step away from a living hell.
Charlotte Vasquez, Raleigh’s self-proclaimed second mother, had
followed him to Scotland. The woman drove Malcolm absolutely crazy. She
was smiley and cheerful and pushy—his absolute antithesis.
