he also knew that there was no other way to get her father to stop. Carden took off on the horse and headed toward the river. He knew if he could get her across the river Sven’s entire army could try to track them but they would fail. As they rode Carden could feel Zuzulla bouncing up and down on his lap. His thoughts began to drift past taking her as he looked down at her. Her large breasts bounced as the horse ran at full speed. Carden shook his head, it had been a long time since he had been with a woman and it was not doing him any good to have her bouncing up and down on his lap. If she were not the enemy, he would have taken her right then, but he knew he had to keep his mind on the job. It was a long ride to the river and it was about another hour before they reached the bank, the river was rushing and it was time for Carden to get rid of the horse they had been riding. Carden slid off of the horse and pulled Zuzulla down with him. He knew she would be waking soon and did not want to tie her hands until they were on the other side of the river he had to cross quickly. Carden had to place Zuzulla on his stomach and swim on his back across the river. This proved extremely difficult and he considered just letting her float down the river. The guards would never find her if he did, but it was not in him to kill her right then. He had made a deal with the king of Kigom and that deal did not include letting her die in the river. As Carden reached the middle of the river, he could feel her starting to stir. It was taking longer to get across the river than he had anticipated, but he was not willing to give up. Carden gathered all of his strength and finished swimming across the river with his captive in tow before she awoke. When he reached the other side Carden wanted to do nothing more than lay on the bank to catch his breath, but he knew Sven would quickly get word that his daughter was missing if he had not already. He had no time to waste he needed to get to the caves as quickly as possible. There he and Zuzulla would spend the night before travelling further in the morning. Carden had only made it about half of a mile before Zuzulla was fully awake. “Let me go,” Zuzulla screamed pounding on Carden’s back. Zuzulla looked around and realized that she had no idea where she was. Fear began to take a hold of her. There were no guards anywhere and she knew that she was out of her father’s kingdom. This was an area that she had never seen before and she had no idea how to get home. Carden dropped her do the ground hard and Zuzulla looked up at her captor dazed. He was a large man with muscles all over his body. He had dark skin and slick black hair and wore nothing but a thin pair of pants that Zuzulla was sure had seen better days. She could not stop herself from thinking how attractive he was, not like the princes who had come to court her. They were thin and pale and had probably never lifted so much as a fork their entire lives. There was something about this rugged man that drew Zuzulla in but as she looked up at him she felt nothing but fear. “What are you doing,” she demanded, “where are we.” “I am stopping your father’s reign of terror,” Carden said, looking down at the beauty lying on the ground in front of him. Her skirt was barely long enough to cover her prize and it was clinging to her body. “We are far out into the wilderness now,” Carden continued. “His reign of terror,” She looked up at him confused, “You must be mistaken my father is a kind man he would never cause anyone terror.” Carden let out a loud laugh at her reply, “How wrong you are little girl,” he said reaching into his pack. He pulled out a length of rope and began binding her hands. “Your father is the most dangerous man in the entire countryside right now. He is a murderous evil man and you are going to help me stop him.” “I will never help you,” Zuzulla scowled as she struggled to get
