His master’s company is the very best, even when he is troubled, as now, and whispers strange and bitter words (only one of them, slave, is familiar), and Jacob, small and powerless and unable to answer in his master’s language, can only try to quiet him with kisses.
He knows it’s not love, knows he’s not free, but he’s grateful for the bread and wine, the warmth of the sun and of his master’s gentle touch. After the weeks of starvation and beatings, this life is more than he’d dared to hope for. It’s nearly enough to make him content.
