He is the harbor that she had never known she would find when she had struck out from her ruffian ancestral home. What could she have done but stay. Her wandering was curbed by his strong side and his dear heart. She admired him for being firm, yet not at all stubborn. She had never experienced one such as him and having given him two daughters was the greatest pride that she could claim for her days on the earth. Day that, she had a feeling, might be numbered.
She had, perhaps, misstepped in not telling him first that she was feeling unwell before there had been trouble like she felt now. She should have perhaps admitted that sometimes those in her herd would take ill and childbearing would be eliminated from their life options or they would conceive and perish. She had never thought that such a lot would be hers to bear, but she keeps quiet now for love of him.
"Mulberries. Certainly most will be gone, but I feel as though I ought to at least try to cater to our child’s cravings." She sounds oddly soft, not so casual as with her daughters. It is because they had shared in her future with her. This child would have no such luck, if the signs she showed were correct. "There is a pretty thick copse of them up towards Bacardi’s woods." She smiles as he falls in with her, abandoning the patrol in preference of her company.
"Thank you for coming with me."
