His Bonnie Bride by Hannah Howell (the beginning after the end read novel .TXT) 📕

"What does that mean, Tavis?"

"Will ye be my wife?"

"I am now."

"Nay, ye but hold my name. Will ye hold my heart as weel?"

"Oh, Tavis, 'tis a most precious gift, and I will cherish it as it deserves," she whispered huskily, and proceeded to show him so to the best of her ability throughout the night, an endeavor that Tavis did his best to reward in kind.

None of those in the hall were surprised to see nary a sign of the pair as day proceeded into night and edged toward day again.
