RIAN'S POV
"I'm going for a walk, go to sleep," he ordered me in a gruff voice.
"Yes, Master," I said to him. So, he wasn't going to touch me tonight? I wondered to myself.
He left the tent. I was a little confused, but I was also relieved. I could get some rest for at least one night. I got comfortable and tried to get some sleep.
The following morning when I woke up Maxus wasn't there. I got ready and went out to do my chores as usual. When I returned to his room later that night, I found him there, but he told me to go to sleep then he left the tent again. Leaving me puzzled once again.
What did this mean? I thought to myself. Was it that he felt guilty and wanted to give me a break?
I didn't know. However, I was grateful. I remembered the night before by the bathing pools. I thought he was angry with me, but apparently not. Perhaps soon he'd hear what I had to say and give me a chance. We would have to wait and find out.
