Megan had never had a suitor before. She had been too young and then her mother had become ill and she had taken no thought other than to try and nurse her back to health. When the realization had come to her that her mother was dying and would never rise from her bed again, she had been busy dealing with her grief. So the circumstances had never arisen. She had known Darach was fond of her but now--now she was overwhelmed, by the gift and by his open declaration of affection.

She hardly knew what to do. She set the necklace back in its box and replaced the box on the dresser. Then she rose and stood in front of him, looking up as he looked down at her.

"Thank you, Darach.  You will never know how much this means to me.  I can never repay you--and I know it must have cost you more than what I received for it.  I--I like you too."
