Horizon Ridge cast away in time

sobeille prepared to clap back and answer, but on second thought, her mouth shut abruptly. she didn't owe him an explanation, and the way she thought he was playing stupid grated her. did he really not know that men everywhere walked around with the ugly thing between their legs dictating their every move?

was he gay?

as he looked back towards the coast sobeille replayed what he'd just said. why don't you elaborate?

he may have bolstered her side in the pirate skirmish, but he was still only a man. and a man could not ever compel hard-headed sobeille to do something she did not want to.

i t'ink you can figure it out for yourself. she countered back, sniffing at the wind. sivaak and yura would wonder where she was by now.

deciding he wasn't worth making them wonder, sobeille airily waved her tail and, unless he had something else to say, began her trek home.

out of extreme abundance of caution, she did not go directly to camp. her path roved up and out until she was sure no one followed, and only then did she turn in the true direction to their hearth.
