Blood Sword Legacy 04 - a Knight to Remember
“Too many times to count, she moved to leave the bed, her desire to return to the stranger so insistent she nearly screamed her frustration. But she did not go to him. Not that night, nor the next morning, nor the next afternoon. But once the sun sank and the moon rose, like a Siren’s call, in her dreams, he called to her. And she went to him.
She went to him, she told herself, because the food she had left for him had surely run out. She went to him, she told herself, because though he was out ...of the woods as far as his fever and wounds were concerned, he was not strong enough to hunt, or even defend himself.
