Despite Lucretia not being able to really acknowledge him Bourbon wouldn’t let her go. She didn’t sprint away again, but didn’t relax until the hooves had faded either. He could tell by her quickened breath how exhausted she was. He honestly didn’t expect her to talk again until after she’d worried herself to sleep.
