The Lion of the North
“A love that was never meant to be is stronger Thanks words can ever make it so.
—Isobeau de Shera de Wolfe, 15th c.
Wolfe’s Lair “When is the last time you spoke to her?”
The softly uttered words came from Warenne. Atticus, trying to fix a long-shafted spear tip that seemed to be coming loose, heard the question and knew exactly who Warenne was speaking of but, in truth, he wasn’t ready to acknowledge it. Doing what he’d done as of late, he simply ignored the question.
“Who?” he asked, then deliberately moved to change the subject. “Can you please have someone bring me more strips of leather? The smithy should have some. These spears are old but they are still serviceable. If Norfolk charges tonight, which all indications seem to be that we will have a second wave of their assault, then these spears will come in hand. So barbaric, though. I feel like a wild man pitching sharp sticks at my enemy.”
Warenne was fully aware that Atticus didn’t wish to speak of his wife; he’d spent six day...s refusing to discuss or address the woman.MoreLess
