Highlander's Secret Protector

He is avoiding the lass that everyone chases.

Edna McGregor has promised to herself not to marry after the sudden death of her betrothed. Somehow, she feels that he is still with her, protecting her, and even several years after his death, Edna rejects one man after the other. Until one day, the sought-out bride comes across Malcolm Lennox, a warrior from a friendly clan who looks like no other man.
Malcolm is not only built like a beast and devilishly handsome, but also, he does not try to impress Edna with fake words and flattery like every other man does. Edna tries to flirt with him, but to her surprise, the warrior avoids talking to her although he is unmarried. After this embarrassment, Edna thinks it was wrong trying to open up, and she wishes never to see the man again.
The fact that Malcolm has to stay at the McGregor castle for a while makes Edna desperate; how will she be able to see him daily? However, this will be the least of her problems as, while she is wandering alone away from the castle, men approach her, and everything goes dark…
Edna hears someone fighting with her kidnappers, and she thinks for a moment that it is her old betrothed, but Malcolm has somehow been able to track her and save her. When Edna learns that she was kidnapped by a man who wants to marry her, she finds a way to get rid of all the suitors; a white marriage with Malcolm.
The warrior will gain great power and wealth from a marriage with a noble lass, but Malcolm denies the offer, revealing not only that he knew her betrothed, but also that they were close friends! Edna is shocked, and as it is revealed that Malcolm was there the moment her betrothed died, she will begin looking at this warrior as her worst enemy instead of a friend.
