Chapter Twelve
Zander
I exited the tent, and went back to my own, where Neireida, and Thomas were.
“Where did you go?” Neireida asked, I smiled,
“We caught some bandits trying to raid our camp, I just had to check on the status of them,” I replied,
“Are you holding them?” I nodded, she did the same, looking a little disappointed.
“We’ll release them in a few days, after they’ve learned not to steal from us,” I reassured her, and the disappointment left her eyes.
“Maybe I could bring them something,” she said. I shook my head.
“That would be unwise, their scoundrels, and I don’t want to imagine what they’d say if a woman entered their tent,” I warned.
“Oh, I see, well then I hope they learn their lesson.” She turned, and continued to play with Thomas, as she had been doing when I entered. I smiled at the beautiful scene of my wife, and child.
