Aldith had been sitting on the furs until she heard someone approach the tent. As the footsteps drew near, she stood and turned her back to the tent opening. While she had been anticipating Aidan’s arrival, it was Cainnech who had appeared instead. Aldith was glad that she had her face turned away for the moment, as it gave her precious seconds to school her face to be the picture of aloof coldness.
When Cainnech finally finished speaking, Aldith turn around and gave the other woman an assessing glance that moved up and down the woman’s entire body. A look that was meant to chill the other woman to her core.
“While a lady would never discuss such matters with a stranger, please let me return in kind. I gave him more joy and pleasure in one night than you could mange in a thousand nights,” she told her coldly.
Aldith then looked around the tent and gave a small sniff of disapproval. “I thought it was odd that my Lord would have a tent that smelled so…rank,” she paused a moment to look Cainnech over again and added, “but now all makes sense.”
With that, Aldith left the other woman’s tent, dismissing the woman as if she were nothing, which, to Aldith, she was. However, whether she chose to acknowledge it or not, something about this woman agitated her. She knew she shouldn’t care, and she did her best not to, but the sheer haughtiness of the wench made her want to feel the crunch of the woman’s breaking nose cracking into her palm.
Aldith strolled towards the tend that the slut had pointed her towards. It was a truly lovely spot and she wondered if it had been picked for that reason or if it was strategic. Either way, the rustling of the leaves in the trees and the sound of the water trickling by all served to relax her, if only a little, from the encounter she had just had with Cainnech. She was doing her best to reign in her temper, as it should have been of little concern to her what her husband had done before their marriage, but deep down, it niggled at her.
When she finally saw Aidan, she stunned for a moment and how handsome he was. She had seen so little of him that seeing him in the soft light of the dying day nearly took her breath away. She paused for a moment and then cleared her throat before approaching.
“Good evening my Lord,” she said as she approached, holding her hands together in front of her.
She looked down a moment and bit her lip before looking up at him again. Instantly, flashes of the previous night’s passion flashed through her mind and her cheeks blushed. She closed her eyes a moment, willing her cheeks to cool, before she looked up at him.
“I…must apologize for my behaviour today,” she began, “I feel that without knowing it, our intentions have been at crossed purposes,” she explained and finally got the courage to look into his eyes.
It was almost her complete undoing. She suddenly felt horrible for all she had made him endure due to her ire for matters that really had naught to do with him. She sighed heavily and dropped the rigid regal stance she had formerly imposed on her body and paced a bit.
“It’s just…I was mortified at the sheets…” she began, willing herself not to cry in the anger it instilled in her, “then,” she paused and touched the bruise that had raised on her jaw, remembering her father’s strike, “then other things transpired, none of which had anything to do with you, and yet you bore the brunt of it all…”
She plopped down on a log and angrily wiped away some errant tears before slapping her hands down on her lap and looking up at him.
“I had hoped to ride out with you as your wife and thus I took the horse closest to you which did no please you. I then moved to the carriage which did not please you,” she explained in a torrent of words, “while you were most tender in our marriage bed, it still took some time for me to recover from…my deflowering,” she explained and bit the inside of her cheek hard, trying to stave back the tear that threatened to erupt.
“In short my Lord, if I displease you, I will not force my presence upon you. I can find other accommodations if you wish.”
With that she looked down at her hands and prayed she wouldn’t be turned away, for what could be more humiliating than a bride being turned away from her groom’s tent on their second day or marriage?
