Rob reached his mother's tent. He pushed the flaps open after the guard let him through.

Callie turned around and saw her son enter. She was shocked to see him up and about but pure joy and relief overshadowed it. She got up and practically ran to him, hugging him before even saying a word. "Oh Rob, its so good to see you out of that bed. I was so worried that you would never recover."

The king hugged her back. "It's alright now mother, I'm fine." Though the hug did make his injury ache.

After the moment had passed, Callie pulled away and frowned. "Sir Cirges barred me from entering your tent this morning."

''It's a good thing he did. I was naked with Jeanne at my side.'' "I know, he told me." Reality was slowly coming back to him.

"He said you were indisposed, that you had company. Rob, what kind of company?" Callie asked, though she already suspected.

Rob didn't really know how to respond, as that was his mother after all. Though he wasn't one for lying. "I don't know if you know her, but her name is Jeanne Nathans. She...stayed the night."

Hearing it from him personally only made her angrier. She was so angry at him that she didn't even notice what her name implied. "Rob, you are betrothed. You can't be sleeping around! Do you want a bastard?!" She was projecting some of her anger and frustration of Edgar and his bastard, Jovron, onto Rob.

In truth Rob had forgotten that he was engaged. Only now was it all coming back to him and he recalled what Cirges said earlier. ''Bellisa came to see me...damn it. That can't be good.'' "Mother...I didn't call her over. She just showed up."

"Why didn't you send her away?" She asked.

"Because I enjoyed her company. It was the happiest I've been in many months." He told her.

Callie saw that he was telling the truth. Rob could never hide his emotions from her, she could read him as easily as she could Edgar. She decided to drop the issue, though she meant to bring it up again later.
