He pulled her to him and sighed. "We will take it nice and easy." he told her, "This is what you have saved yourself for. To be married and giving yourself to the man you love." He kissed her and didn't care who was watching. Of course this was a part of the Highlanders ways. They did not really hide their affections from everyone. Only the intiment parts of a romance was kept hidden and if the man had a brain one he would not talk about it to anyone. It was something that was not to be talked about, even though many probably knew and whispered about it. "I imagine you have been told about such a night?" he asked her.
Angus let himself be taken to the ground by Claire and he held her in his arms on the grass and laughed. Claire seemed to be coming out of a shell that she had been in for a long time. He could not see her doing such a thing some time ago. Here she could express herself all she wanted. His encouragement helped as well, as did his attention and love. Duncan and he figured even Alexandria had seen the change in her sister.
Duncan was interupted by one of the stable hands. "It is time sire. She is about to give birth to her fold." He grabbed Alexandria by the arm and took her to another part of the stables where a lone stall was. Here there was fresh hay and a couple of the stable hands caressed the neck of a mare as she was giving birth to her fold. It was the fold of the Mare and His Stallion. "You have a draft horse to ride. How would you like one that is breed to run and carry a man or a woman long distances." He nodded to the emerging fold.

She smiled up at Duncan and nods."okay my love.I trust you.That is true and I am marrying the man I love."She said. When He kissed her she melted into him and deepened the kiss.She sighed when He pulled back."yeah I have heard rumors."She said and smiled. She kissed him again. She couldn't get enough of her lips on his.
Claire laughed gently and layed there in his arms. She felt different, not in a bad way.But she didn't have to be shy around Angus. She looked down at him lovingly and kissed him fully on the lips. She sighed and just enjoyed her time with Angus.
Alexandria had noticed a change in her sister and she was proud of her. When she and Duncan were interrupted by the stable hand she sighed. A fole was about to be born.She was semi dragged along. She was curious as to why she was being dragged along for this. She could not say how many times she had seen an animal or child slip into the world.She watched and sighed. "I love the offer, but I have Thair he is my horse and wouldn't give him away for anything in the world."She said. "But Thank you My Laird."

"Well then we will see who this little one will take up with." The Fold was born and nature was taking its course. The stable hands checked it to make sure it was in good shape and that is when Duncan lead Alexandria back to the castle. The next few days passed quickly or slowly depending on the day. He had his second round of hearing complaints, but thankfully there were fewer of them. He had to go over the taxes that he had to pay to the King and those that the people had to pay to him. Once he knew how much he had left over he looked at what he needed to spend that money on. But he always found time to walk or ride with Alexandria and spend time with her. He had rounded up women willing to be taught how to use herbs and such and how to tend to wounded. These he handed over to Alexandria for training. He had talked with the priest and let him know what she was going to be doing. At first the priest was against such a thing but after some common sense talking by Duncan the priest saw the light. He had to explain to the priest that if God did not want man knowing how to use the herbs and things needed for healing people, he would not have allowed such things to grow, nor would he have given mankind the knowledge of how to use them. So it was only logical that God wanted mankind to know and to use them and that he had granted Alexandria that knowledge and that he intended her to use her skills to ease pain and save men's lives. Even the priest then attended her classed and saw for himself the good it would do, and learn to do it himself.
During this time there was live stock that was brought in that would be slaughtered for the wedding feast and also to help with that of the large wedding feast. Already the other clans were bring in what was to be slaughtered and used to bake bread, pies, and cakes. Fire pits were dug and filled with wood, and spits built to cook sheep, cows and chickens outside. The Castle itself was abuzz with preparations and Heather was directing it all with a grace and ease that seemed effortless. Everything was ready for the wedding of Duncan and Alexandria. The lairds and their sons and the birdes to be all were arriving and being put up. Heather saw to the wedding dress that was to be worn by Alexandria. She was with Alexandria and having her try it on and making last minute adjustments. "Oh you look so beautiful." Heather told her. "My son is getting an Angel for a wife."

Alexandria sighed the days passed quickly as she spent her days teaching woman in the villages to heal the men. Her teaching methods are unusual. She was thankful she didn't have to go through stupid meetings. She had the priest join in her classes. She did not just keep them in the castle she would go out and pick the herbs she would need. She would end her lessons when Duncan would poke his head in. She loved seeing him. She sighed the castle was now a buzz with her wedding preparation.She slightly frowned she did not like to be around so many people. The castle had become crowded and stuffy. She tried to be out as much as possible. The air made her feel better.
Today Heather had asked her to try on her dress for her last fitting. She sighed as she had 3 dress maker's, making it perfect. Alexandria breathed at the sight of it."oh my are you sure about this. It is so fine and amazing."She said as she breathed. The dress was amazing and beautiful. She spun and looked it over."This is so beautiful How may I thank you."She said to Heather. "Angel me." wow those words have never been used in about her before. Alexandria blushed.

"Aye, you be a beautiful angel. Look for yourself." She has a full length mirror brought over and held so Alexandria could see her self in the dress." Heather beamed at her and loved how she looked. She knew Duncan would again be surprised at her beauty and how she could look. There was no more that could be done to the dress, it was now perfect for the wedding, which was on the marrow. In his own room Duncan was being outfitted in fine clothing for the wedding. A black jacket trimmed in gold braid, A black shirt and his kilt and tartan displayed properly and black leather boots that buckled up the outside, up to his calfs. His sword sheath had inlaid silver over the black leather. He was a right handsome man to be seen, and a bit nervous as well. Just like all grooms were before the wedding. It was going to be a long night, for he was forbidden to she his wife to be until the wedding now. Over the last few days he had gotten so use to her being at his side. Oh but he knew the wait would be worthwhile. Connor was there with a couple of the other Lairds, in his room talking and drinking as was the custom of the last night the groom would be a single man.

Alexandria breathed in and sighed and looked in the mirror . The dress suited her. Her flawless skin seemed to being glowing. She sighed and her eye's stopped at her face.
Alexandria frowned and looked away. She did not like to look in the mirror. "Thank you Heather this means a alot."She said she had the maids help her out of the dress and into her night gown.She sat on her bed and brushed her hair out. She smiled at Heather. "This is perfect everything is."She said. Alexandria leaned back on her bed. Alexandria missed Duncan. She had veen at his side for the last two days. They were inseparable and she didn't want to be with out him. She leaned back looked over to the door. Her sister had veen moved for the night. She hadn't felt so alone in a long time. Even the maids, didn't stay. They said they bather her in the morning, before they put her in the dress. Alexandria put a hand on her stomach and breathed in she really wanted Duncan, but couldn't see him.

Connor, Angus, and a few of the Lairds were all lounging around the rooms of Duncan. Telling stories of deeds and exploits and the like and drinking down wine as if there were no tomorrow. This was Duncan's last night as t single man and some of the others there and Angus were celebrating because the day after they would no longer be single. "You know Duncan, there has been nothing like this in the Highlands. Twenty lairds and their kin in one place, celebrating and not fighting, and the largest wedding every coming up. " he laughed. "You have accomplished the impossible my boy." he shook his head. Duncan sat there and sipped his wine. "Well I think the idea of drinking and eating has occupied their minds." he chuckled.
His mind wandered to Alexandria. He wondered what she was doing and how she was handling the wait. In the morning they would be married and he would have her forever. They would be presiding over the multiple weddings the day after and seeing to the celebration that was to follow.
The army of the Scottish King was assembling and marching. He hated to do it but he needed help. His army was greatly outnumbered by the English if the reports had been correct. It would take a couple days to get word to the Highlands but by then he figured the marriages would be done with and he hopped that the clans would come. He sent the messengers and if all went well within a few days the clans might be marching down to join his army before the English showed up.

Alexandria had dinner brought to her. She ate and drank and read in bed. She Alexandria couldn't pay attention to her book. She wanted this night to move on. She sighed and stood up to blow out the candles. Alexandria went to bed, and layed down. She layed in the empty bed on her side and looked over at the wall. Her eye's closed and she fell asleep. Alexandria dreamed, she twitched and whimpered.
Dreams: Alexandria woke and looked around. The castle seemed oddly quite.She went to get up when a hand covered her mouth."Hello Lady Alexandria, you had a beautiful wedding or so I heard. Maybe you can entertain me and my men. I mean even in the English colonies your beauty has been marveled at. You definitely will be a good shore for us. You Highlanders are all a like, but you are Just a lowlander pretending to be a Highlander. Now come on."He said and dragged her to the hall. She was pushed into a chair. Duncan and Angus were being held back at knife point.She went to run to Duncan. An English solider grabbed her by the hair."no no miss you will sit or these men will watch how to treat a who're such as your self. "The solider said and slammed her on the table. Alexandria shook her head."No no please. Don't kill my husband or His cousin. I will do anything, I will even give my life just not my husband please. "She begged. They nod."send them to the dungeon, do not harm them."the soilder says.Alexandria watched them go with round eye's. She wanted to cry, especially when a knife was put to her throat.
Alexandria woke and jumped. She breathed in and looked around. She sighed and sat up, this was no dream for a bride. Yes she worried, but she knew he would never leave her. Alexandria sighed and layed back and ran a hand through her hair.She closed her eye's to fall asleep gently this time her dreams were less dark.

Duncan had to push most of the men out of his rooms so he could get some sleep. "You all had best get some sleep or you will all miss the wedding tomorrow. " Finally he was alone and he sprawled on the bed in his clothes and fell asleep. His sleep was a bit restless from the drinking and the excitement of what was to come the next day. When he finally awoke the next morning he felt tired and his head hurt a bit. He stripped from his clothing and washed up. Cold water to the face helped wake him up some. Then a hot bath, as male servants came to get him ready for the day. A light breakfest was served and Angus showed up, a bit berry eyed but sober. He was Duncans Best Man at the wedding and he was dressed in finery as well.
Downstairs in the Castle, Heather had others preparing the Main Hall for the wedding and the reception. The Priest was their dressed in his best robes and vestments. There would be a Mass and then the actual wedding, the full ritual, pomp and ceremony. Not only did she have her servants but those that came with the other Lairds. The beef, lamb, and chicken to be cooked was already being put on the spits and the fires begun. The smell of fresh bread waifed through the castle as the kitchen made cakes and bread. All over the town the people, Lairds, and other visitors were dressing and preparing to go up to the castle.
"Well Cousin it is your big day." Angus slapped Duncan on the back. "Tommorow will be Claire's and mine." he grinned. "You know I never thought I would see such a day for either of us. "
Duncan laughed as he got dressed in his fine clothes. "Well Angus, we had a good run of it. But it looks as if the Lord has other plans for us.and I can't say that I am against it." It was an arranged marriage, but him and Alexandria had managed to fall in love. "Yes like the Priest says, God moves in mysterious ways." By the time he had eaten, bathed and dressed, and from the late start he got because he slept in a bit, It was close to the time for the wedding. Angus and him made for the Great Hall which was filling with the guests, and those to be married the nest day.
His mother stood there at the front of the room, radient and beautiful watching her son. She was happy and content. The McCloud name would live on with her son's own son. She would have grandchildren and the castle would once again be alive with the sound of children playing. Duncan moved through he room to the front where the Priest also waited. Along the walls were pipers that would play th marital march song when Alexandria entered the room. He kissed his mother's cheek and then took his place. Since Alexandria had no father to walk her down the isle Connor had volenteered and stood ready.

Alexandria was woken by a maid. She groaned and want to shoo the girl away. She then remembered it was her wedding. She sat up slowly with a yawn and sighed with an almost frown, her dreams disturbed her last night. She definitely have to tell Duncan, but later.
Her maids got her in the bath and cleaned her from head to toe.She felt a bit better after bathing. She was placed in a rove as her hair was done. She did her lip coloring and outlined her eye's. She pinched her cheeks for color and stood slowly. Her hair was in ringlets around her shoulders. The maids had twisted gold ribbon into her raven hair and only put some of it back.She smiles at her reflection in the mirror. Alexandria took her robe off and started to get dressed. Her undergarments went on then her corset. She hated the thing, but today was no day to go with out it.when her corset was on Her maids got her into her dress and zipped it up in the back. The back was low cut, and so was the front the corset definitely pushed her bust up to show . She laughed and fixed the dress gently. It was beautiful. She loved it, her servants helped her with her shoes and she was ready. She stopped. No she wasn't she walked to her chest and opened it. She rummaged and found a box her mother had given her.She smiles at the memory. Flashback: "Alexandria my heart you will one day wed and on that day I want you to wear this. It is a family Heir loom. All the woman in our house hold have worn it on ther wedding day." It was a beautiful necklace. Her mother showed her. Alexandria hugged her mother and nods."Thank you Mama, but I don't think I wish to ever be married."She said. Even back then she was a hard headed child.
Alexandria sighed as she looked at the necklace. Her hands trembled and she held back tears.She took the necklace and put it on. It nestled just above her chest and caught the light. The Ruby in it was beautiful. Alexandria sighed, she was finally ready. Her maids walked her down to where Connor was meeting her.she nods to him and pursed her lips."Laird Connor this is a surprise indeed."She said. She hadn't known he be walking her down the aisle.

The burly Laird chuckled. "Ah on a day like today a proper lady needs one to walk her down the Isle. Sense ye have no one, I claimed the honor." he chuckled again. "Ah you look Beautiful and Radiant. " he placed her hand on his arm and at a signal that all was ready, the pipers began playing the march song. The air was filled with their music. The pipes always stirred a mans heart for some reason. Connor squared his shoulders and held his head high as he began the walk with Alexandria. Slowly they walked down the improvised Isle. There were many gasps and whispers as she walked down the Isle. Mens jaws dropped and women took in deep breaths as they stared. Duncan himself was stunned by her beauty and how she looked in the dress. Heather whispered. "An angel is among us."
The priest looked at Heather and then back at Alexandria. Indeed she did look like an angel from the good book. All that was missing was the wings but that did not matter. The priest smiled and took a deep breath as he prepared for the ceremony. Once Alexandria was up next to Duncan, Connor backed off a couple stepps and the mass began. Then the ceremony. Everyone watched as the Priest began and the two recited the vows. When it came to Duncan and the priest spoke the words, he looked at Alexandria and said "I do." with out hesitation.

Alexandria laughed at Connors words and shook her head."Well thank you Laird Connor very kind of you to offer and Thank you. You don't look half bad yourself this day."She said and sighed as she took his arm. She walked slowly down the isle with him. Her head held high and a smile on her sift lips when she spotted Duncan. Her breath was shallow and quick. She was ready for this, she kept telling herself.Alexandria heard the gasps and whispers. She smiled and made eye contact with her sister. Claire nodded to her. Claire couldn't believe it. Her sister looked amazing. Alexandria couldn't help but blush from all the looks she was getting. Heather had called her and Angel.which deepened her blush.
Alexandria sighed when connor handed her to Duncan. She took Duncan's hand and walked up next to him. That walk down the isle seemed to take ages.She brightened as she atood next to Duncan. As the Mass began, she listened only slightly. When it came time to say her Vows, she did never faltering. She watched Duncan and smiled. She said."I do" with no reservations ir hesitation. She loved Duncan. Yes it had been a short time, but he was an amazing man and she didn't give her love so easily.when they were pronounced Laird and Lady. She smiled and placed her lips on his.She sighed she had missed him. Being away for a day from him was hard. She really had missed him.

When her vows were said and she answered I Do. He smiled and moved closer to her. "You may kiss the bride." the priest said and again Duncan did not hesitate. He pulled her to him and kissed her deeply. From the assembled guest applauds and cheers rang out. It was done, him and Alexandria was married. Tears of happiness streaked down Heather's cheeks. She looked at the two her hands clasped to her breast. When he broke the kiss, the priest said, "I present to you Laird Duncan McCloud and Lady Alexandria McCloud." Again the people cheered and applauded. He turned to face the crowded room with his wife. The celebation then got under way as toast were made and the congradulations began. Duncan escorted Alexandria up to the head table and looked at her. "Today is our day. Tomorrow is theirs and Claire's."
Angus grinned broadly when he seen his cousin married. He pulled Claire closer to him holding her tightly. One could see the others that were going to get married watching the two and how they began looking at their prospective husband or wife. Duncan also looked at them and he could see many had fallen in love just as he and Alexandria had. "Are you happy my love." Duncan asked Alexandria.

The eating and drinking began and of course there was a certain little individual that came running up to Alexandria and hugged her. The little boy she had saved had come with his family and there was no stopping him. Duncan waved off the guards and smiled. The little boy who's name was Dustin looked up at Alexandira, "You are beautiful." he said. His parents came forward and apoligised for his behavior. Duncan chuckled. "Do not worry about it. Enjoy the festivities and food and drink."
"Thank you sire." the boys father said with a smile and took his wife back to their other children.
The music soon began and Duncan sighed. The first Dance was to be theirs. "Shall we?" he asked Alexandria as he rose from the table and offered her his hand. All eyes now were on the two again and he could see the sparkle in the eyes of the wives to be. They were all looking forward to their own weddings and returning home the wives of Lairds or the sons of Lairds that would one day take over the Clans, The dance was a slow one as was proper. Later they would get more festive and spirited. Duncan knew that by nights end all would be wore out. But of course him and Alexandria would have long before that retired to their chambers. His had been cleaned and her things brought in and put away. There was also a new wardrobe fore her, dresses, ridding clothes and night ware that had the appropriate clan colors. But till then they would join in on the fun.

Alexandria smiles as the little child ran up and hugged her. She picked him up hugging him."good to see you Dustin and Thank you lad."She kissed his cheek."you look well, you doing as I asked?"She said. He nodded and hugged her again. She laughed and nods to his parents. She told them not to worry. She let Dustin sit in her lap.
Alexandria looked up as the music began and Duncan asked her to dance. She patted Dustin and asked him to keep her seat warm. She would dance with him next.He agreed and she set him in her seat.She watched as all eye's went to her and her husband.She held her head high and held his hand.She bowed to him. It was a traditional Clan slow Dance. She watched him with her ocean blue eye's. She had been taught these steps in preparation for there first dance.She smiles all would be worn out by the end of the night. She how ever would not, she was exhilarated.Alexandria nods to him as the song ended. She smiled and raised an eyebrow. She knew the next song something all the Laird got there woman up for. It was sort of a line dance. They switched partners. She would be switching with her sister. Alexandria watched Duncan and smiled as the dance started. She smiled and when it was time to switch, she laughed."well Hello Angus."She breathed as he lifted her at the waste and set her down gently. Alexandria was having fun.Claire smiles at Duncan and shrugs."my sister is happy with you. Happier then I have seen her in a while."She says as they danced.

It was a fun time. The second dance was one that he had done many times and enjoyed it. Dustin got his chance to dance with Alexandria and then his parents came and claimed him and one could see him and his two brothers and sister playing with other children that had been brought. The was a time for everyone to celibrate and have fun. The afternoon passed and night fell and still the party went on. But about that time Duncan looked at Alexandria and grinned as he pulled her gently to her feet and made his way to the stairs. "Ah now for one last tradition." he said. He handed her the wedding flowers that were to be thrown into a crowd of single women. Once that was done the two of them could escape the party and go to their rooms and relax and enjoy one another.
All the single women pushed and shoved to try and get the best position to catch the flowers. Duncan laughed as he saw how eager they were. There would be many more marriages in the McCloud Clan for sure with in the next year. Everyone was calling to Alexandria to throw the flowers and laughing at the girls and women waiting to catch them.

Alexandria had fun dancing with Dustin and laughed. He was so cute. She liked him,he was a sweet kid.when his parents scooped him up. She winked at him and sighed. Alexandria was actually having fun. They went to sit and eat."She laughed and talked through the night.Alexandria had her hand in her husband's all night long.She sighed as the afternoon and night passed oddly quick.She looked at him when he said throw the flowers. She shrugged and took them she let the girl's gather and shout. She laughed and threw the Bouquet.
Alexandria smiles and watched a girl grab it. She smiled and stepped back to her husband. "Interesting. "She said and laughed. She sighed the night was coming to a close, she almost frowned. She was happy, she just worried. Alexandria looked at her husband and breathed in. Alexandria kissed his cheek, she loved her husband. She knew tonight would be very interesting and different.

Finally they were in their chambers and alone. The sounds of the party drifted up to them somewhat but most of the noise was blocked by the massive stones that made up the castle. He took her in his arms and kissed her deeply and held her. When he broke the kiss he whispered. "Finally we are alone. I missed you yesterday." he grinned and kissed the tip of her nose. "I have gotten use to you being at my side." Now that would not be a problem. He moved around behind her and began undoing the laces that held her dress. The Wedding Dress would be hung up and preserved, perhaps for another day, perhaps if they had a daughter it would be used again. He helped her out of it and laid it over one of the chairs. "We will take it slow and easy. There is no rush tonight."
The next day would see twenty such departures and twenty couples heading off to consumate their marriage. Oh this was a time that was going to be remembered for many years to come and be talked about for some time. But that did not matter to Duncan at the time. Only Alexandria mattered now and he was going to ensure she enjoyed their wedding night, make sure she felt the pleasure of their union and have a desire for more in the many years that they would be together.
(Like we have discussed, can't do much here. After your post we can move on to the next day if you like.)

Alexandria sighed when he lead her into his room. She only heard small noises and smiled. She let out a small noise as he pulled her in.She kissed him back and warps her arms around his neck.when he pulled away she smiles up at him."I really missed you love."She said. She smiled as he kissed her nose."I have gotten use to being at yoyr side I hated being away from you. "Alexandria admitted. She sighed as he moved behind her. She moved her hair to the side.He undid her dress and she let out a small breath. She shook slightly as she stepped out of the dress. She looked at him and nods. She bit her bottom lip and sighed. She felt his lips on her neck and she closed her eye's enjoying his touch.Alexandria turned to him and pressed her lips to his. She pulled off his shirt and ran her hand a along his back. She felt him lay her back on the bed. Alexandria breathed in and closed her eye's as she kissed her husband. Alexandria had been worried about this night almost for nothing.
.....
In the morning Alexandria woke with her head on her husband's chest.She sighed and looked at her ring on her hand on his chest. She enjoyed him more then once last night. She knew that he was all hers and she definitely enjoyed giving the only thing she had left to give to her Husband. Alexandria clung to him, she didn't want to move yet her bare skin on his. Her skin had a bit more of a tanish tinge then his. She finally moved her head and kissed his chest. She loved him so much.

Duncan as he had promised Alexandria took it slow and easy. Stripping her of her undergarments and then his own clothes he gently ran his hands over her smooth skin and explored every inch of her body with them. He showed her the pleasures of making love and took her to a place where she had never been. He took his time and after the first entry which was painful for her, she knew nothing but pleasure. They had all night and he again made love to her and brought her body soaring to new heights of pleasure. They finally exausted themselves and both fell asleep in each others arms.
In the morning Duncan awoke to her kissing his chest. He stroked her hair and ran his hand up and down her back. "Well Wife, how do you feel this morning." he grinned. Ah the sound of that word dripped well from his toung and lips. Wife. He liked it. He pulled her up to him and kissed her lips gently. "I am going to hate getting up this morning. I could lie here with you all day. " The feel of her naked body against his was exelierating. He grinned mischeviously as he began to run his hands over her body to arouse her and then made love to her one more time before they would have to get up and preside over the days festivities.

He watched her get up and move to the wardrobe and select a dress for the day. He groaned and streached then sat up on the edge of the bed and stood up. He washed himself up from the night before and selected his regular type clothing. Together they would be making sure everything was as it should be and he knew she would be making sure Claire was ready as well. He also knew his mother would be there helping Claire with her wedding dress. She treated Claire as a daughter and seemed to be loving it even more to have both Alexandria and Claire there in the castle. When he was ready he enterlocked an arm with hers and made their way to where Claire would be getting ready. He would drop her off there and then go down to make sure the fires were lit and the food was being prepared. He already could smell the bread baking. It always seemed to fill the air with that wonderful aroma.
"I will see you downstairs when the time is right." he told her and drew her to him, kissing her deeply. Then with a pat to her ass he sent her towards Clair's room and chuckled. The castle was abuzz with life. Servents and guests moved about, being up and about to get the day started. Left overs from the night were being eaten for breakfeast and some helped with the preparations of the meat on the spits outside. In town there was music and dancing already, celebrating Alexandria's and his wedding and those that were about to take place. During the week up to the wedding, Duncan made sure she was seen and talked to by the people of the town and the villages about the McCloud lands. They all feel in love with the New Lady McCloud.'. He found Angus in his room getting ready. He had trimmed his hair and beard for the occassion, but had not shaved it completely. The man loved his beard. Like Duncan had, he was dressing in all the finery that he could. Duncan raised a brow at seeing him. He actually looked to be a proper Scottish Gentleman. "Well now Cousin, how do you feel?"
Angus looked at him and said, "My insides are crawling, I am so nervous." That made Duncan laugh.
Connor showed up as well a big smile on his face. "Ah to be able to give away two beautiful women in marriage. I am a man that is truely blessed." He was also going to be the one to give Claire away.
