The Viking's Highland Lass
Page 24
Lady Akira, Lady Eilis, and Wynne were coming with James to see the baby after a few weeks. Eilis’s own baby was a girl and was several month’s old, and their son, Ian, was eager to see Brina and the new baby too. Christophe and his wife had left the castle that morn as soon as they learned Brina had survived the birth of their bairn and their son was perfectly healthy.
Gunnolf knew Christophe had only stayed to see him fail. But Gunnolf would never fail when being here for Brina was so important to her and her people.
He caught up to Robard holding up his grandson, proud as could be. And for a moment Gunnolf folded his arms, watched, and smiled, Beowulf sitting beside him, a couple of months older than a yearling, so not quite full grown, wagging his tail as he watched Robard and Hagen too.
The Highlanders and the Norsemen had finally made peace, and Hagen was the result of it—a beautiful son bringing their two worlds together.
It all began with Gunnolf believing he had died and the goddess had come to take him away. Brina was that goddess, and she had taken him away all right. To a place that was perfect for the both of them and for their newborn son.

Many thanks to Donna Fournier and to Vonda Sinclair who helped to make Gunnolf and Brina’s story so much better!!! Thanks, ladies. If I could, I’d send you both a braw Highlander to thank you too.
