“Kristen mounted and rode beside her husband, which meant the terrible Dane could not be left alone in the wagon with the defenseless Selig. Defenseless? The man might still be weak as a babe, but he had weapons aplenty in his words.Erika was grateful she would not be forced to endure his close company, even though what was left to her was to walk. The walking she wouldn’t have minded at all, except her shoes had not been returned to her.She wasn’t even sure if it was a deliberate oversight, for... Kristen hadn’t been the one to tie her wrists before her with a long length of rope attached to the wagon. Thorolf had done that, and she doubted he had noticed she was without shoes, her under chainse was so long. The Norsewoman could merely have forgotten that she had removed the shoes the day before, or, as was more likely the case and a common enough practice, it was hoped her feet would suffer enough damage that she would be in no condition to escape by foot if the opportunity should present itself.Erika had noticed the oversight immediately, but for some ridiculous reason, probably because Selig had been watching whilst she was being tied to the back of the wagon, her pride had reared its head and she refused to ask for her shoes.MoreLessRead More Read Less
