They had no idea how long they sat there. The storm passed over quite quickly, and they could still hear the thunder far away, but the sun was shining outside the door in the wet grass, and fewer and fewer glittering drops were falling from the roof. The sweet smell of hay grew stronger in the barn.
âI have to go now,â said Kristin.
And Erlend replied, âI suppose you do.â He put his hand on her foot. âYouâll get wet. You must ride, and Iâll walk. Out of the forest ...â He gave her such a strange look.
Kristin was tremblingâshe thought it was because her heart was pounding so hardâand her hands were clammy and cold. When he kissed the bare skin above her knee, she tried powerlessly to push him away. Erlend raised his face for a moment, and she was suddenly reminded of a man who had once been given food at the conventâhe had kissed the bread they handed to him. She sank back into the hay with open arms and let Erlend do as he liked.
