A week later:214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7Izrb7CRr
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2lFrUwkhZ
We were stood on the training field. Cian was going to fight both Evander and I at the same time. I don't know if he is underestimating us or overestimating himself.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdD4SoSBLG
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELlUXg7afR
Standing in our fighting gears, apparently for our safety, Cian was using a wooden light sword.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEyXiaWAE2
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBrL4WB6jK
It's not like we haven't fought with real swords before, in fact we were both warriors initially. So we have seen wars, ugly ones at that. My body is covered in so many scars of these wars that I can barely even make out if they are scars or a part of my body.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cB7U9iQ8m
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqLrOZP9xT
My mother always used to tell me that no one will want me for the scars I have, that I shouldn't have chosen to be a warrior. What she didn't know is that my whole point to be a warrior was to kill her goddamned bastard husband. I put him six feet under with my own hands as Argo and mother watched. Argo was older than me, yet he didn't know what side to take, to this day, he feels guilty about it, he tells me that I was more mature to had made a decision to save our lives. He also had been a victim to father's abuse.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH073xfg8CX
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicZVFWAGCB
The kingdom wanted him dead, and so did I. So I did us a favor, 214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjwslYb9rN
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0JVN4vpAM
I killed him.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKoZVYrpp8
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVO2o0tnlR
He was a threat to society and the royalty. He had wanted me to turn into a machine and kill them all. I grew a conscious and killed him instead.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9VnuyyLvc
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMti2Gijcfe
I shook my thoughts away and sneaked a glance at Cian for silent comfort.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYqQMzw9Kk
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUP9fr5YoI3
His muscles flexed as he handled the swords. While he was talking to Evander, I failed to notice I was silently drooling as they both looked at me with a questioning gaze.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2D3r1pCLP
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SxufM5mCa
I looked back at them "W-What?"214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14OPWVrOnI
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduPO05EaUc
Cian looked at me with concern and Evander was smirking.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeh41ieIQEB
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJomiMlSYPc
I rolled my eyes at Evander, what a child.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIOWhwC1Se
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMvpzu2eHD
I playfully smacked his arm and I heard a small growl erupting from Cian's chest. He looked at my hand on Evander's arm and had a disapproving expression.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2I6b1LMOUo
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QbnTehDJ8
Oh come on, that's so adorable.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dhNdQZrUu
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeC3ssopS6
Stop before I kiss you in front of the children, Cian.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFjvRQiEkl
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSHYnP6eaC
I removed my hand to avoid worse disapprovals.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1gUi8uGmI
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzkc7plX6H
Evander saw the moment as a vulnerable one for Cian. Something in his mischievous eyes clicked as we both lunged at Cian.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6RQUS7uL9
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ndaIbQrQH
However, Cian recovered. He pushed both of us away earning a small hiss from me. His head snapped to my direction.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiftShC7LIp
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXX5gNpEk9
I knew what I was doing, I was distracting him for Evander and it worked.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWbIDoeWHv
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6a18RANk5
It wasn't fair,214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Em9cP96Fd
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpV9JQFKGt
But In a war to win, you have to play dirty, 214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAq4mQhsGmw
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0noN32gK0
Evander lunged at him again without flattering.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkx7OML1lm
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSQFXxhUrW
He is a persistent idiot I could already tell.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2t3u0m7esA
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbNKA5tUQT
I was smaller than both of them, it was both a disadvantage and an advantage. I was quicker and I could escape easier. But if I am caught, it is all just empty words.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkiy93dAuv
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhyTGfOC8x
Cian once again pushed Evander away without getting a hit in.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqgsNlL7Io
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1R8sNEIr8z
I was now stood next to Evander rethinking our strategy.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFmhMmnwTw
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqWvIZSHif
I turned around and looked at him, we knew what we needed to try next. I needed to let loose, it's not like I'm capable of hurting the king. My father had trained me to something that could take on 20 soldiers all alone. It wasn't even that i was aware of my actions, it all became second nature to me.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCKlk7iwH4
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCr9mfZCAh
Cian now was approaching us as he dodged all of my attempts, it angered me. He was my only match if there was one for me in fights.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51OFjH2raL
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7T5huOwTUV
I breathed in frustration.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruMWBApBGw
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡav7hpktWeW
This time I don't know what came over me, but not only have I pinned down Cian, but Evander was laying there with a confused expression too.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2t0McXqBYB
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcK0N2O3a69
"did I do that?" I turned towards Evander and he sarcastically replied214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fdJv1Lh5p
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnleHbcPWU6
"no, Signy. I lost my footing because the floor is uneven, yes you did that but I don't think it was intentional"214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoBZx7MWSG
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydnuYUFv6N
Before I opened my mouth again Cian was now the one pining me down "Don't let your guard down, little mate" as he looked down at me with an unreadable expression and two mixed pools of yellow and brown eyes.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74KJsApg0B
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6KDzQsRzg
I struggled against him but his hands only tightened around my wrists.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9F5wLho6cq
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZNg9R2irN
Well I liked the position we are in, but this isn't the place for that.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrqyLSCk8f
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2KvMMu5s0
I ignored Cian and looked over at Evander. I was worried for the poor fellow.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9fhBwERvD
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49TyNk4lJs
"I'm sorry" I apologized with a scowl on my face and he just shook his head.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHIxzfrC2T
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLayYz8bPtv
"Signy this happens when we are training-"214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtP7FE82JaY
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKY5oMDWXf
Before he could finish, Cian cut him off. I could see the jealousy on his face.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2F6B2YvFHc
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QVpu2QOu7
It was adorable.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50bWWLd9oc
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinjuegWxRw
Evander wasn't even offended, he just silently smirked. He knew what effect I had on him.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9HoIPLBAx
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PrXtV3Jvh
I think I'm starting to develop a really confusing serious feeling for Cian and it scared me.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XideqrTjv
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4mTmWtdiD
After some more fighting and techniques taught, we were allowed to leave the training ground to freshen up and rest. But not me, I apparently required more 'training' as Cian announced in front of Evander who was trying his best to not laugh out loud as he hid his face with a bow and quickly left.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJc8qiLnhTH
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCZA4TG4Eq
I heard shuffling, he was getting closer.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYJQcp2WCd
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxELnWVZnZ
I felt his hot breath against my neck and his chest against my back. This felt more intimate than it was. I felt so jumpy around him.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtxcBzxTHW
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjGebOQ1ep
He turned me around with concern written in his gorgeous eyes. His voice was a bit out of breath as he asked.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqDoSWwrWX
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqVb559yFN
"What's going on in that little pretty head of yours, darling"214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cmNlk5clB
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZ33RyTXfy
I smiled awkwardly, I couldn't tell him. When my father ended up dead, no one knew. I hid his body so well that even if they flip the kingdom upside down, they wouldn't find it.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEe6aMpTv9
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpgsBe6cUZ
I knew the bastard deserved it, but I don't know if Cian will accept my past. I know that no matter what i shouldn't kill someone, but I did. And I know that I'll pay the consequences soon.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2EfLrxhko
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIj2eW8bb2
And I think I know how. 214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpdFbIKQdZ
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTNBwYECNa
The sooner he knows, the sooner we can get the painful things out of the way. I could also possibly lose my job and get thrown into the dungeons. That wasn't always possible though. Victims who killed the one that hurt them were actually left alone most of the time. But it was alot of court and trial work. 214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJbiqTc6C4
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vnIPMO0eo
I mean that's held by the king himself, he could easily throw me in jail, or easily forgive me.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2LS8yDurX
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIxzt9O1Us
I just don't know if I could forgive myself for turning into what that monster wanted me to turn into.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoIFCiLggT
