Disclaimer: Nothing is mine except the plot which someone has probably already done. I haven't
seen it though. I think this story is pretty good but I wrote it so I might be a LITTLE partial.

CHAPTER FOUR
Doubt?
Three days later.
Alanna was supposed to be in bed along with George, but she refused. She sat in the chair where she first
found George, completely exhausted. With the healers work on George he was almost good as new. Alanna had gotten
her gift back that morning the healers were startled at how quickly her altogether drained gift had returned. Most of
the healers were scared or suspicious that the Gods were meddling in mortal affairs. This afternoon while George slept
Alanna use a very small amount of her gift to help George's healing process along.
"Lass ye have to stop doin' this ye're not helpin' yerself. I want ye fresh and beautiful for our wedding."
"Stop doing what?" Alanna asked innocently.
"Using yer gift on me."
"George what about you?"
"Me?" He laughed. "Oh that hurts! Im only soar the rest of me's doin' good. I'm in one piece ain' I?
And me legs are almost workable again because of the work ye firs' did when ye found me."
"George?"
"Yes, Dove?"
"Tell me what happened," Alanna pleaded. "Please," she pouted.
He grinned. "It was for ye darlin'"
"Tell me."
"Do ye know Thad? A bazhir from the Bloody Hawk?"
"I think so."
"Well... he loves ye Lioness." George laughed cruelly. "He was upset when he found out I was marrin'
ye. He and eight or ten other guys jumped me. When he finished his speech and my beating he left. Six of his
men are dead. When I came to; I crawled to me room and passed out again. The rest ye know. I can' believe how
popular ye are Sweet." He motioned for her to come closer and they embraced.
"I'm sorry," Alanna whispered.
"For what?"
"For bringing this on you."
"I jus' have one question," George told her.
"What?" Alanna smiled.
"Did ye...did ye sleep with him?"
"Who?"
"Thad."
"No!" Alanna yelled.
"Flirt with him?"
"No."
"Not even a little with out meanin' to?"
"George!"
"Answer please."
"No."
"You didn't lead him on?"
"No George. I barely know him. I don't know him! I just know of him, who he is."
"Alanna, promise me?"
"I promise! George! Don't you trust me?"
"Alanna..."
"GEORGE! Do you trust me?
"No. Yes. I don' know! Why would this guy jump me if ye two didn' have somethin' goin' on? Why?
Alanna? Alanna...."
"George I didn't! I swear!" Alanna sighed. "I love you! I do!" She leaned over to kiss him and he
put his hand on her chest stopping her.
"No, Not now! I need to think. Leave. Please." Alanna left. George could tell she was upset
but he need time alone to think.
***
*How can George not trust me? How can he doubt what I tell him? How con we wed with this much
mistrust between us? Maybe Eleni was right. Maybe we're not ready. It certainly seems George agrees with
his mother. They both think I'm loose! I don't even know this Thad. Why did he have to come and mess everything up?
Alanna ran to her badchamber bursting into tears, she fell onto her bed. Maybe I am loose! I wonder how many women
George has had? I'm sure it's more than my three men! People think it's okay for men to have multiple partners but not
women!* Soon all the thinking and crying drove Alanna to sleep. *I wonder if we're really ready?
***
"Alanna! Let me in!" George called as he pounded on the door to her chambers. Startled from her slumber
she was agitated.
"What?" She snapped.
"Smile," George commanded. "I like yer hair."
"Yeah, well. I was sleeping. Thanks for interrupting!"
"Come. Sit." He pulled he over to the bed and they sat. "We need to speak."
"About?"
"Our beliefs, the wedding, our love, you name it." George smiled. "I want children. Lots."
"Really? Do you want to start right this second?"
"No. Not this second. Do you want children?"
"Ummm.....no. Not really."
"Why not?"
"Why?"
"Alanna be reasonable!"
"I am."
"What?"
"Okay. Stop for a second. Are we still getting married?"
"Yes. Why wouldn' we"
"Hmmm... let me think. We argued earlier. We're arguing now, and you don't trust me! I had absolutely nothing
to do with Thad of the Bazhir! I swear George. I love you!" Slow, warm tears fell down her face. George wiped the tears
away with his large callused hands.
"Yes. We're to wed in little more'n a week. We love each other; we jus' have issues to resolve. Stop cryin'.
Yer makin' me feel bad!" George told Alanna.
She laughed. "Okay. Let's talk."
"Babies!"
"No, George."
"Yes. I want baby Lioness' and baby rogue's. They'll be so cute!"
"Your being childish and you want children?"
"Yes."
"Okay. How about this–I get you to myself for a year. Then t guess if there's nothing better to do, we'll have
babies. What do you think?"
George thought for a minute. "Sounds good. I'd like to have ye to myself too." He smiled slyly and leaned over
to kiss his soon-to-be-wife.
"Wait. Is everything resolved?"
"For now," George sighed. "Ye sure ye don' want babes now?"
"No. But–we could practice." Alanna grinned as George place her on the bed gently.
