Unsuccessful as they were, after all. Though, caring for her children would be an excuse heβd accept too. While he had no children to care for, he understood being a parent and the importance the role takes.
Heβd made the rounds after the hunt had been settled and men had been happy to have fires and camps among the houses. Drinks shared, stories told, but in the end, most hadnβt been to war so the stories were the same as last year. Which means soon enough heβs bored with the groups, watching the Queen as she gossiped with the ladies who didnβt participate in the hunt.
He moves quietly to her side when sheβs finally alone, close enough that his shoulder brushes hers just a little. But his voice is soft, for her, which is why the closeness. ] You looked like the gossip of the women might be more painful than an arrow to the shoulder.
