    "I don't know." Eve said softly, "I've.... A brother, but I don't know where he is, and I haven't spoken to King Stark since I left. They might be willing."

    Barab burst out laughing suddenly. "You are either behind the times or stupid, girl," he said, holding his side. "Stark is DEAD."



    Eve looked up with pain clear in her eyes, "Dead?" She repeated, her eyes glancing about with a pained expression, "How... How long.... He was alive when I left...."

    "Bloody months ago, girl. He was killed by his own allies, the Freys. The Lannisters payed them off, and they killed him, his mother, and practically every idiot lord loyal to him. At a wedding between his uncle and a Frey woman, no less."



    Rob Stark was dead. Had Bronn ever told her that, or Edwin? How could he have died months ago, she hadn't left for more than a month, had she... Eve was numb as she walked, haunted and pained eyes taking nothing in. She couldn't believe that he was dead.

    "In any case, you're useless to me if no one is alive to ransom you," Barab continued. "Take her back," he ordered the man who had brought her. "Bronn of the Blackwater will pay for her," a voice said suddenly. Tom O'Sevenstrings had ridden up just in time to hear that last statement. Barab turned to who he thought was his subordinate. "Bronn who?" Tom nodded. "Bronn of the Blackwater. The hero who saved King's Landing from Stannis Baratheon not a couple weeks past. I overheard some of the women this girl is his wife."



    Bronn.... That was going to be a huge bluff; Bronn would probably kill the men rather than ransom her.... Eve looked down, saying nothing. Oh, she was going to beat Bronn one of these days.... He was probably back at King's Landing if not still training men for Stannis.... Her pale hands rested on her belly as she walked, not looking at any of the men.

    "Does this...Bronn...have gold to ransom her with?" Barab demanded. Tom nodded. "That's what I heard. Old Stannis apparently recruited him after the battle. He's a sellsword, so you can imagine he makes a pretty penny off of his employers." Barab turned back to Eve, new interest kindled in his eyes. "That true, girl?" he demanded.



    Eve swallowed hard and nodded, "Yes." She whispered, looking up, "It's true; I'm Bronn's wife, and he has gold." If he didn't believe her, she would suffer. But she was pregnant, wasn't she, with Bronn's child. If she were to be Bronn's wife there would be a reason for her to be pregnant in the first place.... Eve gave a small shiver from the cold, swallowing. Wouldn't Bronn be happy to know that they were going to have a kid?

    "And what exactly would the wife of some Southern hero be doing up in the north, in a tent, alone?" Barab asked, his tone of voice unreadable.



    "My husband worked for the Lannisters before he began working for Stannis. Cersi wanted my head for some odd reason, he sent me away so she didn't kill me." Eve answered lightly, "It was me and a man Bronn sent to protect me; he went to defend the village. I don't know what happened to him." Her light eyes lifted to stare at Barab, swallowing hard, "He'll pay good money to get me back."

    Barab nodded slowly, looking like a satisfied dog. "Well, then," he said. "We make a course for Strom's End. The commander there will send a raven to Dragonstone and let this hero know we have his girl."



    Eve swallowed and looked down. Bronn, with her luck, would refuse to pay for her return.... He would likely kill whoever brought Eve to him if Tom didn't get her out of there.... But at the same time, she did want to see him again. He did make her feel safe, even if he did like bedroom activities too much.

    The group began to head for the south. Progress was incredibly slow, especially given the fact that many of the new slaves were pregnant or unused to travel. Finally, Barab allowed several hundred of his men to stay within a village they had conquered but left relatively intact, on the condition that they take all the slower slaves. Then the reduced main body continued their journey.



    Eve knew full well that she wouldn't be allowed to rest even though she was pregnant and slower than the other women. She managed to keep up with the men, stumbling from time to time and swallowing hard. Not wanting to get another knock on the head on her already bleeding temple, she forced herself to speed up despite the pain brought by her belly.

    As they got further south, Barab ordered the column to stop for a time, worried that Eve's pregnancy combined with the hard march might lead to death or injury on her part. She was a valuable bargaining tool, after all. Tom walked up and helped Eve down from the horse Barab had given her. Now that she was considered valuable, she was being treated much better.



    When Tom helped her down, Eve found herself rather light headed and weak. The girl clung to him in an attempt to remain upright, swallowing hard as she whispered faintly to the man, "Tom... I hope you've a good idea. It'll take more than just convincing Bronn to go with this..." She managed, her words far too soft for anyone but Tom to hear, "He isn't going to want to pay anything for me."
