Oh nooo, poor Keith! The guy just can't catch a break. I love that the narrative has been at such pains to present him as a man who has nothing but his career, with a broken engagement behind him and a distant relationship with his mother. It makes the sight of him throwing it all over for his relationship with Ewen that much more affecting.
And god, this was a tragic misunderstanding to rival any romance novel. Broster is really good at constructing situations for maximum drama while still being totally believable, and the result is so much fun. When I first saw that the title of the section is 'Your debtor, Ewen Cameron', I thought it was going to be all about Ewen being grateful to Keith for saving his life, so the actual plot was a surprise, lol. But I guess that reconciliation is coming up (eventually), and I'm looking forward to it.
Two more meetings left, right? I'm worried about how it's going to end, what with the dire tones of the prophesy, and I was also curious about the attempted assassination at the start of the chapter. Broster wouldn't shove that in for no reason, so it's going to come back to bite Keith eventually. But he couldn't get in trouble for killing a man who was about to stab him? I'm biting my nails!
Indeed, Keith's feelings for Ewen are just that important. Ah, fannish catnip indeed.

:D
As for the 'your debtor' bit, well, we'll get there...
Two more meetings! Knowing how it does all end, I'm enjoying your thoughts on where things might go. But of course I can't say anything more specific yet :D
