Chapter Eleven
Spring came early that year- in fact, it was the opposite of the stormy, freezing weather that occurred in winter-this spring was hot. So hot, that the pages were already down to just one ride a day. Alanna, who was quite fond of heat, went back to Pirate's Swoop promising to return soon. She had been away from George, the Baron of Pirate's Swoop for almost 4 months and was aching to see him.
Daine felt herself grow heavier and more exhausted every day. She couldn't climb stairs anymore-so all her classes were switched to main levels. She watched Numair; once again she felt like he always had to take care of her, she was only a baby. In fact, she thought, he might see how dependent I am on him and leave me! That thought was constantly on her mind, she prayed every night that Numair would come home after his lessons.
Numair was growing more and more concerned about his young wife everyday. She had grown so big that even the simplest activity, standing, was too much for her small frame. He remembered that night, when he came home late as he was talking to Jonathan. He forgot to tell Daine that he was meeting with the king. He remembered walking into his apartment at almost 2:30 in the morning. He remembered hearing strange sounds from their bedroom- he went in and saw Daine sobbing. She threw herself at him and cried harder, saying " I'm sorry, I'm sorry. you don't need to be with me.. I understand." He didn't know what to do, he just held her as she cried.
