Prisoner of war

She smiled. "That spell wont have angered them." she sighed, looking down at all the scars on that forearm.

He kissed her fore arm, "I think the kiss will help more."

"At least the scars stay on an easily concealed part of me," she replies. "I'm sorry for worrying you."

He grinned, "There is no part that is concealed from me Keya." he kissed her, "It's alright."

"it is expected of all our nobles what I just did. The common folk as well must atone for sins like I did."

"Gods shouldn't live off the suffering of thier worshipers."

She smiled weakly. "They have for centuries. And it is not something that bothers me."

"It bothers me though." he said looked at her fore arm, "Go change into something more comfortable you must be tired."

"say that's much as you like i won't be changing it." she smiles. "And out you go sonincan change."

He grinned, "Do I really have to?"

"were not married so yes."

he sighed and got up and left the tent waiting for her to get changed.

She was quick to change into something that left that bandage free for everyone to see. People would ask if she'd atoned for her mistake in the morning.

He walked in once he knew she would have changed and frowned at the bandaid which was easily seen "You want your people too see this?"

"Thwy already know of my sin. Seeing that might stop them from asking if I have atoned for it," she replied.

He sighed, he didn't understand human customs at all and hugged her.

She smiled, hugging him back.

He pulled her closer to him, " i love you so much."

She smiled at him. "Thinknits time I slept."

He nodded, "I'll see you in the morning." he walked back to his tent and laid in his bed and fell asleep.

Her sleep was uneasy, but when she woke up, she knew the gods were pleased.

He woke from a deep and relaxing sleep.

Glen will be pleased I don't owe more than what I gave, she thought, watching him wake up.

He smiled as he saw Keya, "Good morning."

She smiled though it didn't reach her tired eyes.
