Chapter 197

• There are stubborn people and then there is Orian. He threw me over his shoulder like a barbarian and took me to the stream and when I wouldn't comply with getting into the water. He said he was going to tear off my clothes and wash me himself.
• I was forced to do as he bid. While I agreed, he respected my wishes, and turned around while I went about my business, such a gentleman.
• And when I was done, he carried me back to the horse and moved us to a more comfortable place to spend the night after that he got food but my cramps were so bad, I couldn't get up to eat.
