A week later:129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmT30TA0er
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡln2yv2lI3k
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.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSOxuUnIhJ
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRl3IwEO1R
Standing in our fighting gears, apparently for our safety, Cian was using a wooden light sword.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0K56I4sqtI
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLheC37GPv
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.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGXqFE7Ohk
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1XBWH0nkv
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.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QlGea2MSI
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD93WJb843a
The kingdom wanted him dead, and so did I. So I did us a favor, 129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj71DiGL61r
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQD2EpADkg
I killed him.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReajDcMsyR
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4FEJmKCfZ
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.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNz0wXmTsX
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQAWxFwJZV
I shook my thoughts away and sneaked a glance at Cian for silent comfort.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7DKhUCgKx
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd49sRandVr
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.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1b7phe6Vc
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzo7yIQoT8
I looked back at them "W-What?"129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNz9aHexuoJ
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfYJK22vcb
Cian looked at me with concern and Evander was smirking.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoie3dJJLXU
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjPxSYGHUC
I rolled my eyes at Evander, what a child.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGf9sOAy1f9
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmt0PCostAJ
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.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpMqxuNqZo
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjTWCJPFub
Oh come on, that's so adorable.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCpyoBotR4
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgzf6EfESh
Stop before I kiss you in front of the children, Cian.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XxCxIuvd7
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAQ9gNADCy
I removed my hand to avoid worse disapprovals.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnxqM7iDS7
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70eBbZLeUd
Evander saw the moment as a vulnerable one for Cian. Something in his mischievous eyes clicked as we both lunged at Cian.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdcMuSMriR
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmHWart1zE
However, Cian recovered. He pushed both of us away earning a small hiss from me. His head snapped to my direction.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZr4zKsthg
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hZgQe3LBu
I knew what I was doing, I was distracting him for Evander and it worked.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJdvcEXB6C
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIl3mPADmIL
It wasn't fair,129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8l1DytWMFM
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2FFcduJyN
But In a war to win, you have to play dirty, 129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbkLtTWCtH
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhIQWYkTBE
Evander lunged at him again without flattering.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjc2GpOAAZj
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvMj1Gxeia
He is a persistent idiot I could already tell.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSud41BuND
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNBy4Tz5Zf
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.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WQi61YENq
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXOFLN0RlC
Cian once again pushed Evander away without getting a hit in.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgvGHzuxfy
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvSxhqw0Hf
I was now stood next to Evander rethinking our strategy.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2FGrel0Zd
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6O74IopNF5
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.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIFDGUftq7
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovinyMPNaG
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.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSP85DKc5mC
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEqJWvWS2g
I breathed in frustration.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9li5HGLMWT
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2v1rejWaY
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.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7Mhj28BP9
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdt4iUwAvu
"did I do that?" I turned towards Evander and he sarcastically replied129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6U7nGK1No
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ahvtuUeg0
"no, Signy. I lost my footing because the floor is uneven, yes you did that but I don't think it was intentional"129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbQcslfoiu
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JLECUSJow
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.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1K9JcBnbim
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWg9klhQ0k
I struggled against him but his hands only tightened around my wrists.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZulez21Ur
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6X1qor6Dv5
Well I liked the position we are in, but this isn't the place for that.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftInHsOjsK
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpn7lw5bUSj
I ignored Cian and looked over at Evander. I was worried for the poor fellow.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucnZzuU1jy
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfl3noaEGXK
"I'm sorry" I apologized with a scowl on my face and he just shook his head.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSfaVcxxmv
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ28zncJv70
"Signy this happens when we are training-"129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QpQeQoFIg
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxL9KzIbqWQ
Before he could finish, Cian cut him off. I could see the jealousy on his face.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnP6pEWcWGR
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVznATjLMk
It was adorable.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrE6ZONlDra
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWwG2792SK
Evander wasn't even offended, he just silently smirked. He knew what effect I had on him.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBORkoFVYZc
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RVvuUzxBi
I think I'm starting to develop a really confusing serious feeling for Cian and it scared me.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDkfrvb9ab
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4RdbIkaXP
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.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXyljR0fl8
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5fptl7zs9
I heard shuffling, he was getting closer.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGo9Uwugkc
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfRIszxg4Z
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.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qz8JlUhom
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlRtCOo2gF
He turned me around with concern written in his gorgeous eyes. His voice was a bit out of breath as he asked.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DndCd6I6y
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjS1WbLVobs
"What's going on in that little pretty head of yours, darling"129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDaXshyYAC
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP83hkkLTvQ
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.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNKQTnOfVF
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsUe5HHlhm
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.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4F8TAcUhvt
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFpICBIwGo
And I think I know how. 129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLwVvMz1PA
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwTKLrtYIU
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. 129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZScUVtwzXI
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdiVW7x0p3
I mean that's held by the king himself, he could easily throw me in jail, or easily forgive me.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5Vzg1fTgl
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFvMtkHFkx
I just don't know if I could forgive myself for turning into what that monster wanted me to turn into.129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5DKy9k0KJ
