Chapter Ten

“No, I am not unwell. The Jarl told me to remain here until he returns.” Mairead managed a tremulous smile for Aigneis when the woman lifted the curtain and appeared in the bedchamber.

“I see.”

“I wonder, might I beg your help?” Mairead hugged the furs up to her chin, her bedraggled hair tumbling over her shoulders.

“Of course,” replied Aigneis.

“Do you have a comb I might borrow? And… could you ensure that, when Gunnar returns, Donald is not within earshot. I am to be spanked, you see, and I fear I might cry out.”

“Why?”

“Why…?”

“The spanking? Why?”

“Because I slept elsewhere. He came to seek me out in the night and brought me back here.”

“I told you what his wishes were.”

“I know, and you were right.” Her voice trembled, just a little, but enough to alert the other woman.

“Are you afraid?”

“Yes, a little,” Mairead acknowledged, though not so much so as she would have been had this been her first encounter with Gunnar’s discipline.

Aigneis laid a soothing hand on Mairead’s shoulder. “You have no need to be. He will not harm you. But you are right about the boy. There will be noise and he may not understand.”

“And Tyra? Would you take care of her, too? I have just fed her.”

“Aye. Tyra too. Meanwhile, I shall bring you food. I believe you will need it.”
