Going Back To Snowsdale

Chapter 1 No Respectable Man

Daine tossed and turned in her shared bed with her husband she was dreaming of snowsdale again, the words echoed through her head,

'No respectable man!, Little whore, worthless, cursed, plague, murdering bitch!, slut, thief, insane!'

Daine lurched up in bed sweat dripping down her face, "I AM NOT CRAZY," she yelled to the room.

Numair sat up swiftly, gathering his wife into his arms instinctively, "Daine love, what's wrong?" he asked, fear intertwined in his voice.

She clung to him desperately tears falling down her face, digging her nails into Numair's chest, she spoke in chocked sobs, "I…I wont…again…so sorry…family…respectable!" she managed to choke out before bursting into tears again.

Numair cradled his love in his arms, shocked that his love was so upset and he couldn't help her.

Suddenly a loud wailing came from the other room, "Sarra!" Daine said worriedly and ran into her three year old child's nursery.

Numair climbed out of bed and pulled a shirt over his bare chest, walking into his child's room to see his wife rocking the three year old to her and bouncing her up and down while whispering soothing words to her.

Numair walked over to his wife and gently took Sarra from his wife's arms and giving her a cuddle, she wrapped her arms round her daddy's neck, and her legs round his waist, sucking gently on her father's shirt. (Which was a habit of hers)

"Daine you woke up again screaming," he said to his wife giving her a worried look, while stroking Sarra's little blond head.

Daine turned away from Numair and gripped Sarra's cot until her knuckles went white, "I don't want to talk about it"

"Your dreaming about snowsdale, aren't you?"

Daine stiffened, "How do you know that," she said sharply

"You've been talking for a while now sweetheart"

Daine turned around to face her husband with tears in her eyes, "I can't make the dreams stop Numair," she said thickly

"Well in one of my cycology volumes it says that the best way to get rid of these dreams is to confront them" he said

"I hope you don't mean, what I think you mean Numair," she said warningly

"Daine we have to go to snowsdale"

She glowered at him.

"Daine, you told me the story of your life, and after the immortals war you told me that they always said you would never get a respectable man, well look at you now, you have a husband, a daughter, and you're a close advisor and friend of the crown, why do you still let snowsdale bother you?"

"BECAUSE! THEY DON'T KNOW THAT!" she yelled

"They don't know that im respectable! They don't know that im not some whore or dead! As far as they know im still the crazy murdering bars…" she cut off there as she realised Sarra was in the room and she was frightening her.

"Lets go to snowsdale…and show them that you are the best of the best"

"I cant, im scared" she whispered

"Awunty awlana twold mwe twat if your scwared owf swomething the worst fwing woo cwan do is run away," said the small voice of Sarralyn from her fathers arms

Daine and Numair both stared at their daughter, shocked that she could say something so profound.

Daine took her daughter in her arms and kissed her head, took a deep breath, "We leave tomorrow morning" she said quietly.

They walked back to their bedroom and snuggled down under the covers with their little girl in between them.

Ok first of all this story is dedicated to my little second cousin brook, we don't see each other very often but she's the cutest and she's my inspiration for Sarra, she has cute blond hair up to her chin and bright blue eyes…oh and she loves cheese!
