He smiled, and kissed her on the head, "And I you, my sweet."
They slept for an hour or so, then when he began to move, she woke and cuddled him to her. "So tell me, how did it go?" She placed a hand on his chest, her cheek beside his.
He cradled her against him and sighed his hands still busy at her breasts. "Not as well as I wanted, but it will be settled by spring."
"What do you mean?" she asked looking up at him.

"The General wants to catch him and hang him. Your brother wants to bring him back to his tribe to face his actions. The General put out a wanted poster on him."
