- "Och...I doona ken if anyone would call her ugly…" Medraut was an a*****e. He could probably find the girl ugly, though. He pointed towards the high table where Anna was sitting next to the King. “The short blond that is right next tae the King.” Medraut was studying her. "She's a demon, though. Only fair tae warn ye."
Medraut stared at her for a few moments. "That'll do." He said and sat back to his meal.
“Well, why doona I jus’ go deliver the good news then?” He chuckled. Oh, this was going to be funny. At least in his mind. Then again, it wasn’t his life that had been contracted away, or any possible allies or rewards that was being stolen from him, either.
He walked up, and someone in Balfour colors was staring down the King, though the King didn‘t seem to notice. “Good to see you, Master Aden. Join your kinswomen!” The King gestured to a seat for the man so he could join the festivities.
“Majesty, Lady Anna, I have some news. One o’ my clansmen has returned from war, an’ he holds a contract of betrothal.”
“That’s wonderful news! To whom?”
“Anna. Seems her Da, and her siblings all approved of it when each one met the man.” He smirked. The King was looking over the group. “He’s the dirty one in the back. Jus’ came in. He was hungry. Figured best he dinnae offend many noses.”
“He’s agreeable to the arrangement?”
“He said that she’ll do.”
“Oh he did, did he?!” Morgan made sure to point the man out to the girl. She gave him a quick look over. “One o’ your clansmon?” He nodded. “I guess the feeling is mutual, if the contract is legitimate.”
“Looked it tae me.”
“Once he’s had time to eat and clean up, he can bring me the contract, and I’ll look it over. Make sure everything is in order.” Before Anna could start to argue anything the King smiled. “Perhaps he’d like a hand-fast, and if he doesn’t like life at Balfour Castle, the both of you could walk away, and if there are children from the union, regency can be granted.”
Anna sat back at that. He watched Naren lean over. “At least he’s no a Sassenach.”
“Aye.” Morgan bit back a laugh at that.
He went back to Medraut. “She seems glad yer no’ a Sassenach. King said tae eat yer fill, clean up, and present him with the contract.”
