Poison:

Daine sighed. This isn't fair, she thought. Just because I'm pregnant doesn't mean I can't do any thing on my own. I can't even go out in the woods. 'It could be dangerous', she mocked. I can't believe that he's being so over protective of me. It's not like I'm going to get hurt.

Daine looked around the room. Numair was at some meeting with the delegates and wasn't going to be back for a while. Maybe if I leave a note, or just get back before he does. Daine got up form the couch and pulled on a pair of Numair's shirt and breeches. She left him a note and quietly walked out of the room.

Daine was extremely pleased with herself by the time she was in the woods. Numair hadn't found out yet. That's a first, she thought. Just then she felt some one watching her. She turned around quickly to find Kaddar.

'Oh, Kaddar, you scared me.' She gasped.

'Sorry, I saw you and decided to come and see what you were doing.'

'Is the meeting done?' she asked.

'Yah. Way?' He asked

'Because Numair's going to kill me.' She said. She was waiting for him to yell her name.

'Again, why?' Kaddar was kind of confused.

'Because I'm not a loud to be out in the woods. Oh, he's not going to like this.' She said.

'What was that?' Kaddar said

'What?'

'That noise. Daine!' he cried.

But Daine had already been hit by the arrow that the man in the trees had shot.
