He wasn't too far behind. In already a week, he had caught up to the inn
where Alanna and Kel had stayed, Dreamer's Keep. What had been an
interesting find was the fact that they had now two men that traveled with
them. I don't know whether to feel wary or feel relief from this bit of
information, he thought wryly as he settled in for the night.
He lay on top of his bed, taking a long while to get settle because of the inn's uncomfortably hard bed. Staring at the ceiling, he thought over what had happened between himself and Sir Raoul. Even after a week it still was hard to swallow by the fact that Raoul, the man who had professed his love for Kel, had sent him, his rival for Kel's affection, to chase after her, to provide her aid if needed. He shook his head off the nonsense that was creeping into his mind. This was no time to worry about where Kel's heart laid and the motive of Raoul. What was important was that he had to find her fast, if not to protect her from whatever she faced, at least to protect her from the Lioness, who was not only famous for her temper, but was also infamous for her grumpiness in the morning.
