“Sometimes he remembers, but that’s only when his brother is

around,” the blonde explained with a tight smile. “With Beck being

gone again, he’ll probably deteriorate. It’s terrible that he had to leave again so soon. He just got back yesterday, and now he’s off to the

Vampire plane.”

Meg felt her heart drop to her toes. “How did you know he was

gone?”

As far as Meg knew, Beck hadn’t been into the village. No one

had visited them yesterday.

There was no small amount of sympathy in the other woman’s

eyes. Meg got the feeling the blonde was trying to tell her something.

“He told me last night. He asked if I would come up and see if you

needed anything. Cian can be difficult.”

Cian was looking at the blonde. He came around and put his hands

on Meg’s shoulders. He seemed to be concentrating very intently.

Every muscle in his body seemed bunched and tight as though he was

ready for a fight. “You shouldn’t be here. Go away.”

“You see. He’s difficult. I hope he doesn’t get violent with you. I

don’t know what Beck was thinking, leaving you with him. He can be

so insensitive some times. You know men.” There was now a slight

sheen of tears in the woman’s eyes. She made a scene of trying to

hide them.

The blonde before her was tall and delicately feminine. She had a

perfect face with light blue eyes and cheekbones any model would

have killed for. Meg didn’t buy the tears, though. They seemed fake.

“What can I do for you, Miss?”

“I am Liadan.” The introduction came with a slight sniffle. “I live

in the house on the other side of the fields. I have known the brothers

for several years now.”
