Once a Soldier (Rogues Redeemed)
“He was clearly in pain, yet being an abominably stoic Scot and refusing to admit that anything was wrong. Not that much could be done to ease his pain when they needed to return to the castle as quickly as they could. Sofia rode at his side and prayed that his wounds wouldn’t reopen and begin bleeding again.
Interestingly, Jean Marie was equally solicitous, riding on Justin’s other side and keeping a keen eye on him. He had the instincts of a really good personal servant.
Will also cared about ...his friend’s welfare, but even more, he cared about San Gabriel and its defense, so he took Justin at his word. They rode at a brisk pace with few breaks, and those more for the horses than the riders.
Sofia was intensely grateful when they finally reached the castle. Justin was gray with pain and fatigue and in danger of pitching headlong from his horse. Will helped him to dismount safely and held him upright until both grooms emerged from the stables, looking worried.
