Chapter 19: In His Chains

The King gave me one hour with my husband.

He gave it from the throne without looking at me.

The guard who walked me to the tapestry wouldn't look at me either.

"One lamp," the guard said. "One hour. I'll call down the stair."

"You'll knock," I said. "He's a married man."

The guard went red and opened the door.

I knew by now which of the forty-one steps was cracked, and I jumped it.

I went down fast, with the lamp swinging.

He was on the far wall.

They'd chained him where I'd hung, in the same four rings, his arms spread wide and his boots wide on the stone.

The cuffs were too small for him.

They'd been made for my wrists.

The iron bit into him just above the bone, and the skin around it had gone red and raw.

Where the gold lining pinched, it had rubbed him bloody.

My name was stamped in that gold, and it was cutting into him.

He lifted his head when the lamp came round the arch.

A split at his temple had opened again and run down into his collar.
