Rhaedalyn beamed at what she took for a positive answer. It was still a horrible experience to ask someone to sleep with her in such a way and it felt weird being happy that someone finally agreed but she couldn’t help it! There was a chance she could Stand again because of Valerian! Oh, oh no. Did she just hear a refusal? He couldn’t turn her down, he just said yes! Could he do that? Wasn’t that rude to agree to help a woman and then change his mind seconds later? Valerian was her last hope out of the men that Indivara had said would be good for her and with him denying her, what could she do?
Her lower lip started to tremble and teeth sank into it to help keep the sobbing held back. It worked, but tears were starting to form regardless as Rhaedalyn regarded Valerian, silently imploring him to reconsider again. It looked like he might! Either that or he was about to run away. That would be truly horrible! She had to think of something to say to convince the blue weyrling and help him see her cause. He didn’t understand, that was all! “Please! I don’t want to be kept away from the Hatching when there could be a dragonet in there waiting for me. I promise I won’t be any trouble! I… I don’t have anyone else to ask.”
