Samson's eyes opened. He knew that his fever had broken. He felt his hurt thigh. There was a bandage on it. Groaning, he put himself into a sitting position. A woman's form was walking toward him.

" Taren".

" Your awake". Delilah smiled as she handed him some water to drink. " You've been turning and tossing for two days now".

Samson stared at her. " You take a risk helping a Hebrew".

" I found you alone and injured".

Samson shook his head in anger. " Prince Rallah killed my father".

" I'm sorry Samson".

He looked around. " I can't stay".

She looked at Samson's thigh. " You're still too weak to leave".

" I must find mother".

" Samson". She began to plead. " Please stay".

He quickly left.
