Disclaimer: Don't own em! Except for Becky.
Kane carefully placed Becky on the soft feather bed that took up the majority of the room. It felt much better than the so called 'bed' she slept in during her stay in the healing house.
"Is there anything else you need mi hermoso?" Kane asked towering over her. Becky smirked a little when he called her his treasure again.
"No." She simply said adjusting herself to get comfortable. Without another word Kane turned on his heal and went to exit the room. "Where are ye goin?" Her voice sounded desperate which made Kane's heart swell to hear the emotion for him ringing clear in her voice.
"There is a lot that I must tend to." He said his back still to her.
"Oh." Her face fell slightly. Kane turned his face to her and grinned impishly at her.
"Why? Are you sure there isn't something else you need?" A blush worked its way up Becky's neck and tinted her cheeks pink.
"Would ye please stay with me, just until I go to sleep?" He barley heard her, but in a blur he had his boots off and slid underneath the sheets with Becky. Sighing she cuddled closer to Kane's body heat and instantly went to sleep. Kane sat there and watched her, already a small drop of drool was forming in the corner of her mouth, and in his mind she was the prettiest thing in the world. Kissing her temple he drifted off to sleep himself.
When Becky woke up it was night, the stars were shining brightly and the moon hung low in the sky. Becky was about to go back to sleep but heard dainty sounding footsteps coming from the hallway, turning her head towards the door she saw Stephy slinking her way towards what looked like the kitchen. Wanting to know where she was going Becky went to move when Kane tightened his hold on her, completely stilling her efforts.
"Where are you going?" He asked, nuzzling the now warm leather of his mask under her ear. Becky had to think of a lie and quick, she hated to lie to Kane but she had to. For some reason she knew Stephy needed her help, the look in her brown eyes told Becky all she needed. Plus Becky always had a sixth sense when it came to reading peoples feelings.
"My legs are crampin up and I need somethin to drink." Becky carefully swung her legs out from underneath the sheets and placed her legs on the floor, testing out her ankle.
"Won't you let me get the water for you?" Kane pleaded holding back a yawn. Becky smiled.
"No, ye need to get some more sleep. I'll be back before ye miss me."
"Want to place a bet on that? I'll miss you as soon as your foot hits the outside of this room." Kane said placing his head back on the pillow. Becky blew him a kiss then said,
"I promise to return soon." With that she went as quickly as she could, down to the place where she first met Steph, at the peach grove.
Quietly she crept to the kitchen and grabbed a candle out of the drawer and lit it, making sure she could see once she was outside. As she figured Stephanie was scaling the wall
"What are ye doing?" Becky asked. When Steph didn't answer Becky got a little mad. "Tell me or I'll scream!" Becky threatened. Steph sighed and said, "All right..." She looked like was going to actually talk to her but quickly jerked behind her and held the same knife she used before, up to her throat.
"You scream and I'll kill you!" Steph threatened. "Now how did you get here?" Becky smiled.
"I saw ye creeping past Kane's room. I told him a little lie and luckily enough my ankle wasn't in that much pain that I could come out here and find you. Why are you running away?"
"I told you!" Steph said in a shrill whisper. "I won't be his whore! I want to go back to my home! The one at the edge of the country near the ocean! You know on the west side." Becky heard the desperation in her voice and knew she felt strongly about leaving Lord Taker, not wanting to be tied down and used like that. Becky had felt that way herself once but then she met Kane...
"But what if something attacks ye?" Becky asked.
"Please! Try and understand! How would you feel seeing your family die! Then having to be sold to a man who wants you body for his sickening pleasure and then being sold to another man just like that! Becky! PLEASE let me go and DO NOT tell anyone. I just want to go back home!" On a certain level Becky knew how she felt, although she didn't see her family being killed, she knew what it was like to be with out them. It was then how much she really appreciated Kane and his kindness towards her. Becky knew there was nothing she could do or say to stop Steph so she just moved aside.
"Thank you... and Becky keep this a secret!" Steph begged throwing her leg over the side of the wall. Becky nodded and said, "I give ye my word!" With that Stephanie disappeared over the stone wall. Becky sighed and limped her way back to the kitchen. When she closed the door she heard a deep voice say,
"Why were you outside?" It was Kane. Becky almost screamed and said.
"Good lord Kane, ye scared the life out of me." Kane came closer to her and wrapped his arms around her once again, Becky knew she would never get tired of feeling his arms around her in a comforting embrace. "I was just lookin at the stars." She lied again. She really hated lying to him to but her word was her bond. She just hopped Kane didn't hear her talking, thankfully he didn't.
"You promised you'd be right back." He smiled evilly at her causing Becky's heart to flip flop in her chest.
"Im sorry."
"It is all right mi hermoso." He quickly scooped Becky up in his arms and started walking with her to his room. "You can make it up to me later." Becky laughed and kicked her feet out. Becky and Kane were happy with each other, but something told Becky in the back of her mind that it wouldn't last long.
