Highland Song (52 page)

Slade's arms tightened around her even more. Finally, he lifted his head and Lainie saw both hope and fear in his eyes.

"You taught me how passion and trust can grow into real love, Lainie MacPherson. Love is what holds the world together. Love is what will bind us together throughout eternity. Sweet Jesu, but I love you, Lainie. I cannot live without you. Will you spend the rest of your life with me?"

Lainie's hands shook and it seemed that the trembling consumed her entire body. Then she froze, looking at him with a silent question in her heart.

"Do you truly love me?" she asked breathless.

He bent on one knee, holding her hands in his. Then he brought them to his lips and gently kissed her. "I do," he said. "Will you be my wife, Lainie MacPherson?"

"Aye," she said. "I love
ye
more than life. The song in my heart will sing only for you."
