It was night now, and I was trying to sleep but I couldn't. Drogo walked in, concern splitting his usual serious features. "Hash hash yer feeling?" (How are you feeling?) He asked.
"Vo davra." (Not good.) I answered, Drogo knelt next to me and ran a finger down the side of my face.
"Anha tikh vo leace yeri till yer hash healed." Zhorre anha offended yer jalan atthirari anni? till yer hash healed." (I will not leave your side, till you are healed.) He told me softly. I softly smiled at him.
"Drogo, anha zigereo ale kashi alone disse anna" (Drogo, I need some time alone just me.) I said.
"Kifindirgi?" (Why?) he looked hurt. "Zhorre anha zireyese yer jalan atthirari anni?" (Have I offended you moon of my life?) he gently took my hand in his.
"Vos, Anha disse laz't hatif anyone finne jin moment." (No, I just can't face anyone at the moment.) I told him.
"Vo akka anna?" (Not even me?) he asked, his voce was beginning to crack I knew I had upset my Khal.
"Vos." (No.) I said.
"Arrek leace akka avvos jadat irge till yer're ready." (Then leave and don't come back till you're ready.) he said, I could tell he was hurt but I could tell he knew what was best, he could tell that what I did to the child was still bothering me. "Anha tikh ayolat ha yer jalan atthirari anni." (I will wait for you moon of my life.) He gently rested his forehead on mine, and closed our eyes we stayed like that for a few seconds before he got up and left me alone.
"Anha zin ojil anna athfiezar." (I am sorry my love.) I said to myself and fought the tears pricking behind my eyes.
A few days later...
With words of wisdom and well wishes I found myself riding out of Vaes Dothrak, my horse neighing and rearing up before we walked away, I knew Drogo would watch till I disappeared, I just needed some time to think to be alone, I needed to heal and I was of no use to Drogo like this I couldn't think, and I couldn't sleep I had to find my inner peace, once found I would return to the warrior I once was.
The sun was soon high in the sky, and both my horse and I were tired we had to keep walking till we found a pool I dismounted and untacked my horse, he jumped right into the pool splashing water everywhere, we were in a valley it was rocky all around us, a few trees and the pool had a waterfall feeding into it. I slipped off my wet clothes and then laid them out in the sun to dry and I jumped into the pool myself cooling myself off, I dragged my fingers through my hair as I came backup to the surface.
The cold water against my skin felt heavenly, my peace was then interrupted by claws on the rock, I took a glance up and there stood a white wolf.
