Rhett and Sabrina were talking about Amara at the entrance of the cave.

"Can we trust her?" asked Rhett.

Sabrina shrugged. "I dunno. The only thing I know is that if we kick her out of the cave, she will die outside and my conscience can't bear that. So... we have to be cordial in dealing with her. Besides... I think she's harmless," she observed.

Rhett nods his head. "You got a point. Since we can't kick her out of the cave, therefore let's just treat her nicely," he agreed and draped his arm around her lovingly.

A moment later.

Sabrina was engrossed in deep thoughts.

"What are you thinking, my love?" Rhett asked looking deeply into her expressive eyes.

"I'm thinking about tonight... what our arrangement will be?" she asked.

Rhett asked, "What do you mean?"

"Tonight, when the temperature inside the cave turns cold. Where Amara will sleep? In the same bed with us?" Sabrina asked.

"Oh... that... I haven't think about that situation yet," Rhett said, confused.

"That's what I'm saying. Can we let Amara sleep on the ground alone? She will die due to the freezing temperature tonight. The safest place for her to be is to sleep beside us in the bed. That's the only way she can survive the night," she stated.

A deep frown appeared on Rhett's face. "You're right... but it doesn't sit well with me. How am I going to sleep with two women in the same bed?" Rhett said, finding the whole situation absurd.

"She will sleep beside me on the bed. But this time you can no longer hug me because we already have another person joining us in the bed," Sabrina said.

"That's means we can no longer do hanky-panky during the night?" Rhett asked. A expression of disdain appeared on his face. The thoughts of not able to hug and kiss his girlfriend upsets him deeply.

Sabrina sighed. "Yeah... we're going to be celibate for a long time," she joked.

Rhett's face turn sour, feeling upset. "No, that can't be! I'm looking forward to kissing and hugging you every night and now this-!?" he said in a frustrated manner.

Sabrina bit her lower lip. "Me too... I don't like our set up. But what can we do?" she said in a disgruntled voice.

"Let me think of a better idea on how to fix our situation. Our chamber is for the two of us only, outsider is not allowed!" Rhett declared.

"Is there any other chamber inside the cave? Where Amara can sleep without getting frozen? A place that she can temporarily stay and sleep without bothering us?" Sabrina inquired.

"Ah, I think there is a place for her. In the next chamber, a few meters away from the one we're occupying right now. I'll see what can I do to turn it into a habitable room for her, so that she can also have a privacy of her own," Rhett replied.

"Good! Let me see it," Sabrina stood up.

Rhett rose to his feet.

Suddenly...

"HELPPPPPPPPPPPP!"

"HELPPPPPPPPPPPP!"

"HELPPPPPPPPPPPP!"

A scream can be heard inside the cave. The couple looked at each other.

"It's Amara's voice!" Sabrina said.

"What happened to that woman!?" Rhett asked in bewilderment.

"Le's find out!" Sabrina said.

The couple rushed to the chamber, when they arrived there... it's empty!

"Where is Amara?" Sabrina asked.

"HELPPPPPPPP!" Amara shouted again.

The couple went to the next chamber where Amara's voice originated.

When they arrived at the vacant chamber, they saw Amara on the ground, clutching her feet. Beside her are two dead scorpions, from the looks of it, the animals have bitten her feet.

Sabrina rushed to her side. "What happened to you?" she asked worriedly and inspected the area of Amara's skin that already reddened like a tomato and swelling.

"I came here to check this chamber hoping that I can stay here temporarily so that I don't have to bother you, guys. I never thought there are scorpions here, because I didn't see them. But the scorpions appeared out of nowhere and bit my feet, so I grabbed a rock and smashed them to death," Amara explained, teary-eyed.

Rhett released a deep sigh.

Sabrina looked at Rhett. "Do you have some medicine to apply on the bitten area to counter the poison and infection?" she asked.

"Yeah, I have it in my bag. Grandma Azere gave it to me long time ago, just in case I got bitten by scorpions I can apply it directly on the affected area," Rhett replied.

"Good!" Sabrina said. She looked at Amara. "Can you walk?" she asked worriedly.

Amara nods her head. "I'll try," she said and tried to get up. "Ouch, it hurts! I can't walk on my own..." she said and lowered herself back to the ground.

Sabrina looked at Rhett. "Can you bring her to the cave, please?" she said.

"Sure!" Rhett said and went to Amara's side. He lifted her body effortlessly and carried her back to the chamber.

Amara wrapped her arms around Rhet's neck and stared at his handsome face.

They went back to the chamber, Rhett gently lowered Amara on the bed.

"Thank you," Amara said softly.

"Don't mention it," Rhett said and went to the corner, he fished out the medicinal balm from his bag and handed it to Amara.

Amara opened the medicinal balm, she applied a generous portion on the area bitten by the scorpions. Done, she handed the balm back to Rhett. "Thank you..." she said.

"Don't mention it," Rhett replied and handed the balm to his ladylove. "I'll go to the entrance of the cave," he said. He planted a kiss on Sabrina's cheek and left the chamber.

Sabrina looked at Amara. "How are you feeling now?" she asked.

"I'm fine, thanks for asking. I'll just rest for a while," Amara said.

"Okay, I'll stay here with you, just in case you need assistance," Sabrina spoke.

"Thank you... for being so kind to me," Amara said.

Sabrina smiled and said, "Rest now..."

Amara shut her eyes to sleep.

Sabrina removed the knitting materials from her bag and began knitting to make use of her idle time.

...

Meanwhile, at Grandma Azere's place.

She was busy harvesting eggplant from her garden, she's planning to make an omelet for lunch.

Tomorrow... she will go to the next village to buy stuff such as salt, sugar... etcetera.

She still has enough money, good for three months, left by the Alpha Hozer to buy food for his son.

A few minutes later, Olga appeared in the garden, holding two chickens in her hands.

Azere looked at her friend. "Good thing you're here!" she said.

Olga went to her side and put the chicken on the ground. "Why? Something comes up?" she asked upon seeing the anxiety on Azere's face.

"Yes! The cave acquired another occupants!" Azere informed her.

Olga's brows knitted together. "What do you mean-?"

"Last night, during the heavy rain, a woman entered the cave last night and take shelter, unfortunately she can no longer leave the cave. She attempted to leave but suffered difficulty in breathing the moment she leave the cave. So, the wolf has to bring the woman back to the cave to stabilize her condition," Azere explained.

Olga's eyes widened in shock and amazement. "Oh... another woman? The wolf is going to have a harem?" she joked.

Azere glared at her and resumed picking up the eggplant and putting them in the basket. "After we're done here, let's discuss about Amara, the mysterious woman who arrived at the cave last night..." she said.

"Okay," Olga replied and helped Azere with her task. In her mind, she was already busy thinking about the identity of the woman.

After they finished in the garden, the women proceed to the hut to prepare the dishes for lunch.
