“After dinner, we can run as wolves,” Robert offered.

“That would be great,” Anne said.

Janet and Frederick wanted to do it too. Grant frowned at Colleen. She smiled. “I can do a wolf walk.”

“Me too,” Heather said. “The more walking we do, the sooner the babies will come.”

“Yeah, that’s exactly what we’re worried about,” Enrick said.

Everyone laughed.

“But Robert will be with us,” Colleen said, as if that would make a difference if they suddenly had to deliver their babies far from the castle, on open land or in the woods.

Then everyone began having conversations at their tables.

Callum, Oran, and Ethan started serving up the meals, and then they took seats with Heather and Lachlan, and they all began eating.

“The food here is delectable,” Janet said.

“It is. I look forward to moving here and eating regularly at Heather’s pie shop,” Frederick said.

“We all feel that way,” Colleen said. “Her food is the greatest.”

Everyone agreed.

“We need to marry and go on our honeymoon the week before Robert opens his vet clinic,” Maisie said.

“And your gown?” Edeen asked, as if she was going to make it for her.

“Oh, gosh, you all are having your own wedding and then going on your honeymoon, so I don’t want you to worry about making anything for me.”

Edeen smiled. “I can do it. I have the fabric for it if you want it to be white. I have just the perfect design for it if you want a medieval gown. Robert already had me start on a Campbell tartan shawl for you. If you have a MacTavish shawl and shoes, we should be good.”

“We can make a crown of wildflowers for you from flowers from my garden and Edeen’s,” Colleen said.

“That sounds terrific.” Maisie had thought she was going to have to order a gown online that could take weeks and not even get there in time or drive two and a half hours to Glasgow. She wanted to support Edeen’s business, but she also adored the garments that Edeen made. She could wear them over and over in different ways to make them look really unique.

Edeen showed her the gown she had in mind on her phone.

“It’s perfect.”

Robert tried to see it, but Edeen pulled her phone away and frowned at her brother. “You’re not supposed to see it until the wedding.”

He laughed. “But we’re mated.”

“Chef will make whatever you want for the wedding feast,” Colleen said.

“It’s our treat,” Grant said.

“If you would like, you can use the ancient chapel we have and we can provide flowers from Edeen’s and mygreenhouses and gardens.” Colleen glanced at Edeen to see if she was good with it.

“Absolutely,” Edeen said. “I never thought I would be growing flowers for weddings, but it makes them even more worthwhile.”

“Same here,” Colleen said.

“Thanks, everyone. It will be the perfect wedding,” Maisie said.

Edeen glanced at Robert. “What about you and your wardrobe for the wedding?”
