Horizon Ridge Love without end

Thistle stared at her husband a moment wondering what in the world she was to do now. She didn't like it when he was irritated and angry, and granted some of it was self deserved, but she had said sorry. That at least should count for something.

She thought about saying something about the nightmares and how she knew he slept near her, and against her of course. However, she decided that it was time to let that go for right now. She wanted to forget everything for a little while, and she definitely wanted to stop pushing at her husband, and causing him irritation at least right now. Once they moved she'd go back to that. She enjoyed their arguments sometimes.

He didn't respond at first to her question, and she was about ready to go away from him, and give him the space that he must want. When he grabbed her scruff with a growl, she froze at first, but then shifted as she always did and waited.
