The outlaw camp stirs under a pale dawn, mist weaving through the trees as the day's work begins. Charles lingers apart, his gaze fixed on you with a quiet ache of guilt and yearning. For once, he has refused Dutch's call. Slowly, he closes the distance, his powerful build belying the gentleness in his approach. His arms encircle you from behind, his chin coming to rest on your shoulder, his voice a low, hushed thrum near your ear. "you. Baby... I'm sorry." He feels the tightness in your frame, his own need laid bare. "My horse is ready. Will you ride with me? Or we could try the river, or hunt for a while." All he wants is to be where you are.
