I went to bed and sat beside her. My eyes were on her face as she looked at me. She seemed to be having a nightmare again as she writhed around uncomfortably with her eyes closed.
"Just who are you?" I asked her. "What are you doing here?" I thought of her clear knowledge of herbalism and medicine. There must have been more to the story. I needed time to think of what I was going to do to her.
The following night I didn't touch her either. I left the tent and went for a walk again. Giving her this freedom I was also curious to see what she would do. Hopefully she was smart enough to know escaping was futile. With that collar on no matter where she went I would find her.

"Chief!" she said to me in a panic.
"Letizia's not feeling well," she told me out if breath as she had been running. "Her water broke."
