“Congratulations brother, you have a healthy baby son. Now let’s hope he takes after hismàthairand not his da,” Tyra said.
Iain nursed his head wound and crawled his way over to the bed, where Yesenda cradled their newborn. The reverence with which he gazed at his family was something to behold.
“He’s ours?” he whispered.
“Aye Iain, he’s ours.”
Iain’s eyes glistened with unshed tears as he caressed the babe’s cheek. He then gently leaned forward and brushed a kiss across Yesenda’s lips.
“Thank you for giving me a son,” he said.
“Dinnae be silly. It took the two of us, Iain.”
“Aye, I ken it. I was there, wife. Every single time, loving every moment.”
Yesenda just smiled with love shining through.
Iain’s mood became somber when he said, “Yesenda, after the pain I saw you go through, there’ll be no more planting bairns in your belly.”
Yesenda raised a brow. “Is that so?”
“Aye, tis so. You’ll not be having your seductive way with me anymore, wife.”
“Our son needs siblings, Iain, or he will get bored.”
“We can think about it in five years. I cannot go through this again.”
She raised her eyebrow. “Youcannot go through this again? Iain Henderson, just you try to stay away from me. I am very determined.”
Iain grinned. “Then I have no chance.”
“None whatsoever.”

Sorcha’s Solar, Henderson Keep–14 Weeks Later
“Sorcha, he is so frustrating. He will not come near me. Do you think Iain no longer finds me attractive?” Yesenda asked.
“Yesenda, you could be fat, thin, bald, have scales on your back, and warts on your nose, and that man would still desire you.”
“How can I get him to be intimate with me again?”
“I am sure Iain is suffering as much as you and, after many weeks of abstinence, he would be fit to burst. What you need to do is trap him and seduce him.”
“How?”
Sorcha grinned. “I forget sometimes that you grew up in an abbey. But the answer is simple. All you need to do is talk to Iain and clarify that you desire him, and you need him to give you pleasure.”
“I’ve tried that already.”
“Ah… but did you have the talk with him while you werenaked?”
Yesenda raised her eyebrow. “Ah… no.”
“Trust me, do it without your clothes on. Tis far more effective if you want to get your own way.”
“And this really works?”
