Tamer Chapter 4 Scene 22
🕑 Added 2022-07-25 15:32:50 +0000 UTCI love this shot.
From the book:
“I do not know. It matters not. Come.” She walked me to the bottom of the ramp in front of the cave and then we turned around to look back along the route we came. I could barely see the cave mouth back up the steep hillside. “I spend all day hunting or berry picking. Trel won't leave the cave to do the work, and Galmine moves too slow to escape any of the creatures that are on this planet. You cannot really see the cave from the position down here, but I worry about dinosaurs getting in. A second warrior with a spear will make things safer.”
We stood facing each other as the sunlight beamed from the pine boughs high above.
“Yeah, it seems as if you've been supporting them,” I said.
“I do what I can. Having someone who will cooperate will help us all,” Sheela answered, and her yellow eyes seemed to focus on my badge.
“I'm happy to help. You did save my life.” I smiled at her, and I lost a bit of my breath when she returned my smile. She was like the sun to Trel's darkness.
“I have been here much longer than the other two. Trel is convinced help is coming. I think Galmine believes that, too.”
“But not you?” I asked as I stared into her beautiful golden eyes.
“Rescue might come, or it might not. I do not want to bet my life on the uncontrollable actions of others. I predict that those birds will return to the cave and force us to fight. They might not, but if they do, we will not be able to survive against them the way we are now.” She shrugged, and the movement did all sorts of amazing things to her chest area.
“It's too bad that the guys I first met are dead, they could have helped defend us against these birds.”
“It does not matter,” she said. “They are dead. Wasting energy thinking about what could have been will only hamper our ability to survive. I know Trel will not agree, but you showed up at the perfect time.”
“Yeah, she doesn’t like me for some reason, but I appreciate your words,” I replied with a smile.
