Kate held her tightly and was furious at Johh. He had never been one to hurt a woman. Surely Papa taught him better. Kate could not believe her brother lied to her. She felt horrible for Reika and nearly started crying when she told her Draco took her. She would be very protective and let her father know this had happened. Johh was a threat to her friends and she hated it. Reika had not harmed anyone on the battlefield. She only fought Alyx then it was to keep herself alive. Kate knew the girl would never attack anyone. "Your safe now. I have you. I won't allow anyone to harm you. I promise." Kate rubbed her back and let her cry.  "You and I are going into town and you may have a weapon of choice to defend yourself. I will not leave you alone again. I did not know Johh had a key to my room. I will change the locks and give you the key." Kate rocked her softly and pet her hair. Kate rubbed shoulders to calm her. A good cry will help you feel better. Kate opened the night stand drawer and handed her a few hankerchiefs. "Blow your nose.  Know this you are good person and what was done to you is not your fault. Your a good person and some men are bad. I did not know I could not trust my brother. I never knew him to take advantage of anyone one."<br/><br/>Kate did not tell Reika all she was thinking. Johh had taken an oath to be a knight and now he broke it. It did not matter that Reika had been in Draco's army. As far Kate was concerned, Reika was a slave, taken by force and violated. That was enough to be protected. If Alyx were awake she would have brought Reika to his room. He was exhausted and needed to sleep. Kate could manage Reika's fright for now. She would hold the girl as long as needed. Kate let go of Reika for a moment, she whispered a few spell words and the door clock click shut. "No one can get in or out with out my magic. I am sorry my dear. I will not allow anyone to get close to you or allow you to be alone. You may have privacy to bathe and use the privey. I am not leaving your side until you are able to defend yourself."<br/><br/>Kate rushed over to the bed, she got under the covers and wrapped her arms tightly around Reika. "Now anyone touched that door with get a painful shock. Alyx and Ann always announce themselves." Kate reached into the nightstand and broke off a piece of peppermint stick that she purchased when Alyx arrived. It was wrapped in wax paper. "Suck on this it is good when upset and stressed. Alyx loves them. It helped him to calm when he first arrived. He was terrified every time the door opened."
