This is a very sparsely settled area, with only a few hamlets along the coast, hardly able to put up much of a fight. The closest castle of any signif...cance is Last Hearth, which belongs to the young Lord Ned Umber. That is still many leagues away, too, even if he is willing and able to commit to our aid. Nevertheless, I will attempt to get him to succor us, but it will aid immensely if I have your material as well as moral support, my lord,” the Hound warned the Commander now in his. Just as she finished coming I dressed the wound.Her Dad opened the door asking “What’s going on here?”I replied quickly “Julie called me as she cut herself and was bleeding a lot.” I showed him the bloody towel. “I was just dressing the wound.”He looked at her baby daughter and tented in his trousers. Julie replied “Yes dad, nothing else happened. It was bleeding so fast I knew Johnny was home so I called him over and he stopped the bleeding.” She went to sit up and felt fuzzy. I help her to. ‘You inherited your father’s thick skull.’ ‘Yeah, because you’re the least stubborn person I’ve talked to in, oh, at least the past 30 seconds,’ I answered, drawing the faintest of chuckles out of her. ‘Mom, please don’t worry about me. I’ll be ok on my own. I’ll definitely call you on Christmas, and I know I have a trip to DC sometime in late January. As soon as I know when, I promise you’ll be the first person I tell.’ ‘I damn well better be,’ she answered, and I just had to laugh. ‘OK,. We just need to be gentle with her Mason.” Tasha whispered, as I felt her lightly tug me to the bed. I was simply too stunned to put up a fight. I let Tasha drag me across the room, while she began stripping my clothes off of me. By the time my knees hit the edge of my bed I was out of my tank top, and my pants were being pushed down my thighs. I fell backwards into the mattress, and looked up at both of these beautiful women. My eyes went from Laleh, to Tasha, and back. I didn’t know where to.
