"Are we not going to tend to brother Calhoun's hand?" asked Lucy as they rode.
"He's stronger than he looks, much more strong. A bite like that won't harm him," replied Theodore and Lucy bit her lip. If she hadn't fallen behind and if her horse had not run away, Calhoun wouldn't have been bit.
Markus had already overtaken them and went ahead of them as if he was in a hurry to reach the castle, while Samuel tried to keep up with Theodore and her not too far behind them. As the horse galloped, Lucy held on to the saddle while feeling her back move against Theodore's front. His hands were around her, holding the reins of the horse.
