Penelope sighed and nodded her head at Crow's words. "It really has.." she mumbled with a small frown. She had originally hoped that catching Jaxon would be a bit faster since they had the help of Crow but it seemed they weren't doing much better than the other patrols. The female couldn't help but worry about what the murderous thief was capable of doing if they didn't catch him soon. "Yeah..." she averted her gaze as he mentioned the deaths Jaxon had caused, reminded once again of Millicent.

As he pulled her close, she pressed into him, subconsciously seeking comfort in his touch. "No kidding. Dealing with some enemy knights and sneaking around nearly sounds like child's play right now.." she agreed quietly. She sighed and pulled back slightly to meet his gaze. "We'll find him eventually though and we when do, it'll all be over." She said determinedly. 

"Penelope, we need to get moving." Gavin said looking over at them with his gaze narrowed in on Crow. "We should try to get there before nightfall."

Penelope looked over at the male knight. His suspicion hadn't died down at all during their walk back and it seemed he was eager to get away from Crow, likely because he was determined to try and convince her the thief was behind the attack on their camp. She sighed at the thought, wishing he would drop the subject completely. However, knowing he wouldn't and that they needed to get back to camp, she gave a small nod to him before looking at Crow. "Guess I'll see you in two days then." she said, offering a small smile before she leaned in and pressed a tender kiss to his lips. 

"I love you. Be safe." she told as she reluctantly pulled away from him and moved to join the other two knights so they could begin the final leg of their journey back to camp.
