V- Relocation
I struggled and held on tightly and coldly to Robb as I walked. Robb guided me to a small cottage where one peasant and two children called home. When we reached the cottage door Robb knocked, I watched uneasily as the wooden door creaked open and a woman with a child hiding behind her looked at us. The woman looked around outside, probably making sure no one was with us. "Come in. "She spoke softly with a voice of summer rain.
As we stepped inside the small wooden cottage the floor boards creaked under our feet. Robb sat me at the nearest wood chair. I closed my eyes in the chair as Robb spoke to the woman.
"Thank you, so much. I trust you'll help us right?" Robb's voice was a mixture of sadness and anger.
"Oh course my Lord. "The woman spoke. "I'll make sure your both fed, housed, and cared for. "
"Surely you want something in return, am I correct?" Robb asked.
The woman was silent for a moment. "If House Stark ever comes back...I want my daughter, Athena to be a handmaiden to Lady Kithara. "
Robb cleared his throat. "I'll see to it once I've established the House again, and we'll rid of Joffery. "
After a long conversation with the woman I felt a hand on my shoulder. I opened my eyes and looked up to Robb, his eyes sparkled in the fire lit cottage. "Fara agreed to have us stay. "
I didn't answer as Robb placed a light kiss on my cheek. Next to my ear Robb whispered. "We'll be fine, I'm promise. "Robb pulled up his head.
I don't trust you anymore, I thought to myself.
