On Helen Mathieson, or any of the others, he would not have wasted a thought: but Sonya Volkov stood out by herself, one of the rare personalities of his life- time. In the last few days he had been thinking of her till she had be- come a madness 1o his blood: and all the clamorous impulses within him febelled at the thought of leav- ing her there. Ste would go along with him will- ingly: her passionate letter left no doubt that she would follow him to the world’s end.

LeNoir stroked 's canoe in front of the others and fosed iu to the landing. Sonya rose up, swaying slightly to the roeking of the water. Karakhban reachied her hand, clasped it, helped her step up on the logs. “Sonya!" He greeted her in thelr native topgue. “You have really come! 1 haven’t quite believed jt until now!” Sonya’s clear eyes looked at him steadilys She did not respond to the pressure of his hand. “Yes, I've come,” she said, in an even voice. “I'm glad to meet you agafn.” Karakhan was disappoiited—and puzzled. Her greeting had none of the passion of her letter. But per- haps it was only her natural shy- ness before LeNoir and the Indians., “You're tired,” he said, with a show of solicitude. He could not take his eyes from her—the golden softness of her hair, the loveliness of her face and throat. “Come up with me to the cabin. I've a break- fast of sorts ready for you.” He his listeners knew a sentence of Russian: “Then we're leaving here.! Immediately. I'll explain, dearest, when we're aloné and a thousand versts (rom this place.” As they walked up the footpath to the cabin, he grew more and more disappointed and mystified by Son- ya’s attitude. This meeting with her was not as he had expected. She seemed even colder and more dis- tant than in Victoria, when he had so dismally fafled of a conquest. NSIDR the cabin he took her fore- ibly into his arms and kissed ber, thinking it would break down her shyness. Sonya turned her face away, and he felt her whole body stiffen—at the mere contact with him, it seemed. “What's wrong, Sonya?” he de- manded. “You don't appear at all glad.” He was impatient with her coldness and utler lack of response. Sonya treed h without an- swering. She st over to the rough block table behind it. so that it'stood between her and Kara- khan.
