Chapter 13
After the unnerving meeting with42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRKUSpt9ni
Veyar, again, Vander tucked Mari into her bed and quietly left so he didn’t42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPNswEHxV2
disturb anyone in the apartment. Once he arrived at the bottom of the steps,42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6quaxDVEC
her guards handed him back his sword while the Blades bowed to both him and42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdDLXmxkzl
Shea. Then he headed back to his old room.
He hated that he was now42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqZCciLrce
practically confined to the castle, but he knew it came from a place of care.42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3dINDd4MF
This was the second time in as many weeks he had been attacked, and even though42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxw67fDVhK5
he hadn’t been harmed this time, the fact that he had been so blatantly42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvd4ETsJsd6
targeted meant he was in danger no matter what. He was lucky to have Alex42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXfMbctv7H
watching his back, but if the assassins were smart, they would wait until he42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOp2FfuxkL
was alone during the festivities to celebrate the prince’s marriage while42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOEhhWGhsT
everyone was distracted. It’s what he would do. But for now, he had to focus on42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDa50cBc2MU
getting the recruits ready. Despite what his grandfather thought, they were42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUo9Ct6yuC
better off being used rather than left to the side. If things were going the42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg04zh2L38k
way he expected they would, they would have to be ready sooner rather than42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjriqNkQVU
later.
The five recruits stood in front42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopRLG3Yk0h
of him, each admiring the new swords he had given to them from the Blade42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEiftD4Hy4
armory. They would be the exact swords they would be given upon graduating, but42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oZNSWvV1k
Vander had gone to Charles early in the morning, shortly before meeting them42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMUPOi93K1
for the training session and begged him to allow them to train with their42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqp3tExXJh
actual swords just in case. They argued for a little while before the older man42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7QpM454MN
finally relented under the condition that he come to see how they were doing.42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5oaH3UIZT
Vander agreed and now Charles was standing between him and Alex looking the42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAH2eqGQoS
recruits over with a critical eye.
“These swords will be your42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo618kJQ6Zt
livelihood.” Vander instructed as he paced in front of the recruits as they42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPl4kb0CEQ
stared down at their weapons with a mixture of awe and fear. “They are made42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCd9phNGFl
with viriuum from the Northern Mountains. They will not bend; they will not42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqigbrZlgFD
break. They were created with your abilities in mind, they are an extension of42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fefjb8dRr
you and need to be treated with respect.”
“I thought we were supposed to get42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMB1HK8Xp9
these only when we became full Blades.” Rooster asked. “Or, at the very least,42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbl5XINYETS
trainees, why do we have them now?”
“Circumstances may allow you to be42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTv2b025Qq
graduated early.” Charles stepped up. “You’ve heard about the attacks on the42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzeENjFFja
castle and in the city. You might be needed early than originally planned, but42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrIDkrfGSH
first you must prove to me you deserve the chance.” Forest and Briar grinned42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAbBiKRtHr
like a couple of idiots.
“What do we have to do?” They42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QOS4UKtAR
asked in unison. To everyone’s surprise, aside from Vander’s, Charles unbuckled42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyvXSmr4T5
his sword then tossed it to Alex.
“You will have to42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6BOhO9V4y
fight against me.” Then he removed his jacket and tossed it to Vander. Despite42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sRFFJV5P8
how old he was, he was still an absolute unit of a man. His arms were thick42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQD02FWWkk
from his years of fighting and training recruits as well as having the42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiK1HkBdej
knowledge of fighting packed into his head. Despite all the times Vander had42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZtenRfn0F
challenged him since he was old enough to wear the uniform, he had never beaten42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXSL6Nkspb
him, not once.
“One at a time or42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjXm0ti3fg
altogether?” Rooster asked.
“However, you42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCYmtdUbvf
want.” Charles grinned. “Weapons are allowed, so just try and make this42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgvO8R3Pni
entertaining for me.” The recruits emboldened by the challenge rose to their42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDshfS7JGnf
feet.
Forever the good42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hdABF9prn
sport, Rooster sheathed his sword, carefully placing his jacket on the ground42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBV6XbVhbpe
and putting the sword on top. He stretched for a second before charging at his42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlyDz7YCNF
Commander. He threw his weight around Charles’s middle to get him onto his42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOmAYieQEG
back, but Charles stood his ground. He brought his fists up then hammered them42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjO5wWSuci1
down in Rooster’s back. When his grip weakened, Charles brought his knee up42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhR8BYP4hB
into Rooster’s stomach then flipped him around, so he hit the ground hard. He42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3LQEN5zIV
went to stamp down on Rooster’s stomach, but he rolled away.
Rooster had taken42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAf9AX38xJh
damage, that much was certain. He staggered back to his feet then spit out a42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltlSCJo0oo
wad of blood. Grinning, he raised his fists in front of him, but Vander could42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXzT5Xi3kQ
tell he didn’t have much left in him. His legs were shaking, and it was taking42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GoCtLkrse
all his energy just to stand. However, he should have stayed down. Charles42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNws5Lidft
didn’t go easy on anyone; Vander knew that firsthand. Charles didn’t hesitate.42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCmiGtnqWu
He began throwing punch after punch at Rooster. At first, he did a good job42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfdGTVEHAi
blocking, but it was like defending against a hammer. His arms became heavy,42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAD7IZQoTg
and he could no longer block many of the blows. He started taking strikes to42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PHpkBXCYC
his face and chest. Rooster’s eyes rolled to the back of his head, but he42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHuMonybeF
stayed standing. Charles threw another punch but once he noticed Rooster’s42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz53fzJ4HHn
condition, he stopped. A second later he42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdjbDTSpc1
fell to the ground unconscious.
Charles didn’t42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRexsHCg3w8
look bothered by beating up a recruit, but based on the admiration in his eye,42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggDmHPQrYL
Rooster passed. That just left the other four. As usual, Forest and Briar42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFJ5OKPFyl
decided to go after him together. Their teamwork has been a lot better since42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3seVDdNcC
their trail in the forest, but they would still be no match for Charles.
They went after42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hMpkTA9nF
him, one on each side. Both aimed a punch to his cheek, but he blocked them,42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifP9xccu1b
then grabbed their wrists and pulled them into each other. Their bodies42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDQziyVKeZ
collided with a painful crack. They fell to the ground rubbing their heads42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKEM5Ui5fJ
together. They didn’t stay down for long, they again got up and began42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPald6uFEp
assaulting him, but Charles started to move. He made sure to keep himself away42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUZlf2xbMG
from the two of them, always moving his body so they would get in each other’s42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHP2wlKeUBo
way. They got so used to his movements that when he stopped, they kept going.42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Z1b29Bavp
Charles aimed a kick at Forest’s side which he wasn’t kick enough to move out42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05GVscXmqF
of the way. He brought his arm up to block, but the kick was too forceful.42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmIRM0DIF8
Forest collided with Briar and Vander was sure his arm was broken. The two of42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcK3qpORgLd
them didn’t get back up.
Charles didn’t42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiE1libr5vl
have time to see If they were alright. Eve came at him with her sword42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJY3Vnkqwey
unsheathed. He slowly dodged sideways the sword trimmed off a couple of hairs42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVLT8tDlcR
from his head. Not skipping a beat, once she realized she had missed, he turned42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7K55gNkIsm
the blade and went for a horizontal slash aiming for his chest. He blocked the42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLlOgwKjGU
strike with his armored boot then slammed it onto the ground. If it was any42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkL57XO9nT
other metal, it would have snapped in half. She let go of the hilt to throw a42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiCsxaqevF
punch which he easily blocked. He countered by punching her in the jaw,42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASGctsdMJS
knocking her unconscious.
Vander frowned as42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQSzOvdnGA
he looked at her body. She had lost so easily, but it had also been slobby.42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQs0SwutQJ
During training in the woods, she was a much better fighter than she showed42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUdC2kJNWQ
just now. Was he just blinded or had she intentionally thrown the match with42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSqrY8A4vV
the commander?
Charles got up42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaD02QBoiQ5
and looked over at Chicken who held his gaze. “And what do you have for me?” he42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1U1RaomOh
asked her.
“I’m not much of42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSAur4A6BC
a fighter.” She rubbed the back of her head.
“Then what use42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlanpB9f6cU
are you to me?” he asked. If she was offended by the question she didn’t show42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAJoNZf7vu
it.
“I have a perfect42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeScCEro36
recall and excellent head for tactics.” She explained. “What I could do in the42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaEBi2Brwe
battle is negligible as to what I can do when it comes to planning.” Charles42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwPA8t35pD
folded his arms and looked down at her thoughtfully. Then he proceeded to ask42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBgrwolpFU
her questions ranging from military history all the way to tactics and what she42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqttGTBxRX
would do in any given situation. If anything, that battle was more tense than42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpf61laKRa
the three he just had with the others. Vander couldn’t even keep track of what42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByqOWYPpWA
was being said. It took a few more minutes before Charles seemed to have been42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznZSqcXaJH
satisfied and came back to collect both his sword and jacket.
“They learned42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7w2jDtMb0
quickly these past six months.” Charles said. “Very well, I agree to them42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPViNiAesS
becoming trainees, however, make sure that one knows how to fight.” He hooked a42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXBJMjsfj9
thumb back towards Chicken who had gone over to check on her brother. “Every42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUP6Bhe3VP9
Blade must know, even if she spends her time as an advisor. No exceptions.”
“Yes sir.” Vander42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8HTPy8kmZa
bowed.
“I also received42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNJWAjEp0B
news that the rest of the Warden’s will be arriving today. I want them properly42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJzhSiGxaf
dressed and standing behind you once we greet them.”
“It will be42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4YSViyB7A
done.” Satisfied, Charles left heading back towards the castle.
∙
It took about42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGxRLGK0TV
thirty minutes for the recruits to awaken after the beating they took at42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYH2sY9fUe
Charles’ hands. Vander quickly checked them for damage, but Charles was precise42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0gYzbjA5l
in his fighting. Aside from a few bruised ribs and sore stomachs, they were all42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sX3YOGQPY
fine. Once he told them they had passed, they all celebrated by dancing around42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsIgSrjxbH
and slapping each other on their backs, their pain long forgotten. Vander was42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5F5kAlG9CE
even more surprised that Chicken passed even with her penchant for books42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBGcl5Dgzj
instead of fighting. He had told her what the Commander had told him, and she42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndpAjlazCf
agreed that she had to become better at fighting. She asked for more lessons42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSM32c51N81
and Alex agreed. He would be the one to train her. With that done he sent them42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIOVaSV0zi
to the dorms so they could get ready for the Warden’s arrival.
He quickly42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88CefSyDb3
showered then got changed in his dress uniform. His pants were ironed and42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fDWt039CO
waiting from when he arrived back. His jacket was neatly pressed with the42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKutEI75Y6M
creases worked out of it. In a small display container were all the medals he42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVlaafKPdJ
had received since joining and they had to be properly pinned on the jacket. It42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SyUx2m6nk
was a lot of work for a couple of hours, but it had to be done or it would42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgzcJPx8SL
reflect badly upon the King and his grandfather.
He put on his42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLxWR2MTKW
pants followed by a blue dress shirt then he sat down to polish his boots. Shea42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hEghN5AgD
sat on the bed watching all of this unfold when her head on top of her paws.42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC35GaXGtK5
Once his boots were right he placed them on and tied them tightly. He turned42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSCyTv0fCU
back to Shea.
“Get down here42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oMoFmnY9h
so I can brush your fur.”
“I don’t want42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJDgSAWacy
to go.” She whined.
“You have to.”42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelnwp1bwYF
He chided. “You are a Blade, and we are all expected to go. You can sit42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0eeegRdKD
behind me if you wish, but you will be there. Now get down here.” She42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEF7AEmdfy
glared over at him but did as he asked. She sat down in-between his legs as he42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCSAecYqez
picked up the brush and oil then began combing her. She stayed still for it,42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSybvEaLGV
but when he came to a knot she let her displeasure known with a low growl. He42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWF8U8zDcx
ignored her and kept going, even though he had to bribe her with more meat in42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgBOG2M6SQ
exchange for not biting his hand. Fair trade.
The two of them42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCcAYIvvji
made their way down the stairs and towards the castle door. There were Blades42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNyXI4NyOT
standing at attention on both sides of the red carpet where the Wardens would42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhP5zWBXqx4
walk once they arrived. They would go to the throne room where they would meet42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lFnUJur58
with the others and the council to discuss the wedding and their roles in it,42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1ypfeZlyz
and maybe some matters of state. It was rare that outsides would be allowed in,42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjASzpzdTo
and Vander wasn’t an exception.
Shea and Vander42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyYvZ8Eiv9
took their positions next to Charles, standing to his left, because the King42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHhU0EAeFO
was to the right. All the ranking Blades stood next to him while the council42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiGuzYKpen
members stood on the King’s right side. Mari Drayson and her daughter stood42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaIqeH5SBs
between the King and Viggo Visc, per the custom when any other Warden was in42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuLVdScRzy
the city. Peyton stood to Viggo’s right while Bernard stood in the door way. To42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoqm5U9YWP
the front, in between each, stood a soldier who would protect the council with42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYE1Bpo8vMw
their lives if it came down to it, only the King was left unprotected, as it42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RWV1L1eyA
was ceremonial, but also the job of a Blade to risk their lives for the King. Shea42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JeaJ2JaQe
took her spot behind Vander but would be ready to act in case her friend’s life42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCybfStfVQS
was in danger. They didn’t have long to wait before the sounds of the drums42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UiNP7r7cV
were heard from the Western Gates.
Even though the wardens42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVl06xCBya
came from the north, west, and south, the western gate was the closest point42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ075DcmR02V
between the three, so their entire entourage met there and walked through the42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR04VgcfTWy
streets until they reached the King. As the citizens were given enough of a42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOhMZ5v25n
warning, the streets were closed in celebration. Vander could hear the cheers42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvczfHLCHkk
all the way from where he stood, the noise made his sensitive ears hurt, but he42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYKegA2xUM
had to stand strong, or others would get suspicious. It took nearly an hour for42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGFxGqlJCZ
the Warden’s to make their way to the inner ring, but their entrance was extravagant.
The first warden42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGGBg73KDg
to appear was Jira Jewelthorne, the Western Warden. He had short black hair and42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKW5wiO0UuC
black eyes. He wore extravagant and expensive clothing: today he wore opulent42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIn3TmSG8DN
gold with red trim. His fingers were adorned with silver and gold rings with various42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzIspMx6Tw
gemstones imbedded inside of them. He had no standing army. Instead, he hired42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGYooOlIXT
mercenaries to protect his kingdom. There was a small squad of ten flaking his42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkhSa09ViT
horse as he rode. The Blades assigned to protected him were behind them and it42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4c4oP6Gzq
appeared as though they were holding chains for a man walking between them.
Right behind him42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwx7ftDenHo
came Leida Valariyan, the ruler of Stormcrag. Despite her young age, the42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowJcHRgocu
youngest of all the wardens, the weather made her cold and unyielding. She sat42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKatMnc4oh
stony faced upon her horse, her salt gray hair tied back in a ponytail, her42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcROF1sDLz6
green eyes looking straight at the King. She was a warrior through and through.42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvpYrYB6w4
The only person she brought with her was42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pXrpiwiZE
her cloaked fighter, Drakon, No one knew what he looked like underneath that42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY14DrJR7AM
ratty black cloak, even Vander’s eyes couldn’t pierce the shadows. Whoever he42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkhTDacBlA
was, he was enchanted. Five Blades with terrified expressions followed behind42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Peb00biaS
her. Charles would have to give them the next week off to recover.
The final warden42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidV25cXgRC
was Malakai Whitesun. He exuded power and strength. In wars past he was the42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9BqLpIIet
King’s most trusted confidant, and it was due to his family that the rest of42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdx9siNnWp
Eluvia was safe from Bricen’s attacks. His entire body was tanned from living42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5hwYldZ3t
down there and due to the heat he kept his head shaved. He wore a white vest,42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9GVAQY1hh
with nothing else on underneath, and white poofy pants that allowed him to stay42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuncHr0pR8
cool even in the hottest conditions. He had his own general which was borrowed42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgUDPjfq1J
from the city: Eric Jilena, the patriarch and husband to Anna Jilena. Sitting42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPccyTnriME
behind him was his son, Alphonse, who was poised to take his father’s position.
The six main42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QmvmtROZR
figures got down from their horses to walk up the red carpet while the others42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjyN3snstr
stayed where they were. A few feet from the King, each of them got down on one42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qdRIMHb9y
knee then bowed their heads.
“Rise my42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78q4r3UEVd
friends.” Malcom laughed. He walked down to greet them, his blue trimmed, white42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBenNBw3vXz
cape dragged on to the floor behind him. He stood each of their hands in turn,42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyc9XlzwQpT
his royal signet out for everyone to see. While he got to Leida, she presented42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoubqQrBOJk
her cheek so he could kiss it. “I hope your travels were fair.”
“They were42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSrwIb0ROe
indeed.” Jira laughed, his voice fake, but the gleam in his eyes weren’t as he42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcltRgu2G3D
gazed at the noblewomen standing in the line. “My mercenaries are in dire need42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftCUDfmnhX
of food, drink and entertainment, as am I.”
“And they will42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMXFV5MGs9
have them.” Malcolm chuckled. “And how are you General? Are you excited to be42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDW1A9v2xc
back home?”
“I am my King.” Eric42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLzrOEJWGv
bowed. “I have missed my wife and other children greatly.”
“And you42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMF2Z20Dol
Alphonse?” he turned to the general’s youngest son.
“Yes, my lord.”42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDpQKw707f
Alphonse bowed his head. “Though I’m afraid this weather will take some time to42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KLjfJJKcV
get used to again.”
“I have food for42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEvqmHMGCt
you all inside.” Malcolm turned to step back towards the castle. “If you would42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CzzdF4o3d
please follow me.”
“Not yet my42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wpOuOImtd
King.” Malakai placed his hand on the King’s shoulder. Vander involuntarily42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcloceuMYHf
went for his sword, but his grandfather’s glare kept his hand still. “We have a42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOwXBoxXPu
surprise for you.” Malakai turned and shouted: “MAKE WAY FOR THE PRINCE!” All42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglaXe0EAPk
at once, all those in attendance stepped aside and saluted. A carriage, unseen42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfb1TJWiWgK
by everyone opened and Cuvera, along with two veiled women walked out. The last42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22aXm1JaVB
person out was General Jasper Valentin, Bree’s father.
Upon seeing his42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFqrITaZ7B
father, Cuvera smiled. His sandy brown hair flowed in the wind as he locked the42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjabhZAIwR
same-colored eyes on his father’s. He was wearing a smart blue colored jacket42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡze2iZYVn1Q
with the royal family’s crest etched on the front. On his hand was another,42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIL6oebklrS
identical signet ring, to his father’s. He ran up to embrace his father. After42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDW01IXiOr
a moment the two of them broke apart, but Malcolm held onto his son’s arms.
“I wasn’t42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmfBE59hYm
expecting you for another week.” He gasped. “Why have you arrived so soon.”
“We met up with42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSJksTvf8L
Lord Whiteson as he crossed the river, so we decided to go together. I left the42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxEaGAzjgO
main soldiers on the road as Malakai would be able to protect us.” He stepped42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqle4og2AtF
back to wave the two women forward. He wrapped his arms around the one wearing42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhHdODWgqE
red and orange. “This lovely lady is my betrothed, Kiara.” She removed her42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs29PsDygOQ
veil, and everyone released their breath they didn’t know they were holding.
Her skin was a42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTdwg1Kubs
deep brown color with vibrant golden eyes. Her dark brown hair was pulled back42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDysY8q6wAM
into a loose weave, but there were some strands framing her face. You could42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOn57X4u7Pf
tell that her body was that of a warrior: lithe, muscular, lethal. Vander could42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwiLM83Y9nw
easily see her twirling on the battlefield cutting people down left and right.42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcllEsADNap
He secretly hoped Cuvera knew what he was in for. Unknown to everyone other42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAaNfVJX4wF
than him, he could feel otherworldly power radiating from her that made him42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECteiliPFJ
nervous. It felt as though he was staring at the sun. Even Shea whimpered from42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYmjeM4NRL
behind him.
“It’s nice to42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjv9L6H5q2
meet you all.” She curtsied. Everyone bowed their heads in respect to their42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjS3XunlMm
future queen. Malcolm walked up then kissed both her cheeks before embracing42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhypn7w42Mw
her.
“It’s wonderful42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkc4xOtLAf
to meet you.” he laughed. “I hope my son has been treating you well on your42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczWYbsWMgj
travels together?” Kiara wrapped her arms through Cuvera’s.
“He’s been42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyBGNV2y7N
perfect.” She smiled. Her gazed flickered to Vander. Upon noticing him her eyes42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiUPdX4Q4e
widened then she whispered something into his ear. He nodded his head then42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSvzsFXbpS
turned back to his father.
“There is one42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScWS03ETOU
more person we’d like to introduce everyone too.” He motioned the mystery women42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMdBbUfJRh
forward. She was dressed similarly to Kiara except her uniform was yellow and42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicG2zsojCE
silver. She stepped forward then removed her veil. Without waiting for anyone42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4y6F19NxCV
to introduce her, she introduced herself:
“My name is42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMPi6NiIWC
Eliza, Kiara’s younger sister and bodyguard.” She curtsied. “I hope to be of42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpbMggdRpY
use to all of you here.” She looked over at Vander and the breath left his body42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnbt8vz5Kr
for a moment. She was the most beautiful person he had ever seen. She was42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3TtiXXsTc
smaller than Kiara but had more defined muscles. Her brown hair was tied back42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDYaWPchyG
into a tight ponytail, her silver eyes looked at him as if she could see42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYFrju1k1s
everything.
“It would be our42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpS3FBUZ5f7
honor to have you.” Charles answered.
“Let us go42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBtmC9nLuf
inside.” Cuvera offered. “I’m tired from my travels and I’m sure the wardens42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8iUVyOSRP
are as well.”
“Of course.”42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQwswuI7CT
Malcolm grinned. “Bernard made sure everyone’s rooms were made up properly and42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX36b4uGBxY
we have spared no expense to have your men as comfortable down in the city as42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IRGL7SoAE
possible. I trust I don’t need to explain the rules?”
“No sir,”42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ISGRyNs66
Whitesun grinned. “We remember what happened last time.”
“Excellent.”42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ872lg9jQOb
Malcolm clapped his hands. “Come my son, there is much I must talk with you42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7DX17EB1J
about. My dear Kiara, you should come to so we can get the chance to get to42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiH111g5Bm
know each other.”
“Yes father.”42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6lROB1XIj
Malcolm laughed at that but wrapped his arms around her shoulders and escorted42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOoS4CEpal
her in. Eliza followed close behind unwilling to leave her sister alone in42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28brTpHS1m
foreign territory. When Cuvera walked past, he gripped Vander’s shoulder.
“Meet me42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98zId7TwCC
tonight.” He whispered into his ear. Vander nodded his head.
Soon all the42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRJNvsrKHG
nobles disappeared back into the castle while their guards were taken into the42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vN4C4guXv
city to their lodgings. While they were here it meant more overtime for the42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3eFHgGYaal
Blades and city guards because they had to make sure they behaved themselves42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8U1NsYK49e
with the locals. The only ones left other than Charles and Vander were the two42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWcwWcyqgV
generals who seemed to be discussing something with Alphonse. A moment later42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uLXvfK1TG
they split up and both Eric and his son went into the castle, likely to see42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2K7xiAl1Y
Anna. However, Jasper walked over to the two of them.
“Commander.” His42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35EUCzDCAy
voice was curt, angry.
“General.”42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEKOaHijtL
Charles tried to hide the disdain in his voice.
“I heard my42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbzfh9Xp25
daughter went to see you.” Jasper glared down at Vander. He shrugged in42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlB1LcvIaKN
response. Suddenly Jasper grabbed Vander by the neck causing Shea to jump to42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRcE8mAaS6
her feet snarling. “You stay away from my daughter, or I will make sure you42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLfgfASxi1
never see the light of day again.”
“Are you42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXL534fC5K
threatening my grandson, General?” Charles asked. Suddenly Alexander and a few42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLRy5Y3W0M
other Blades surrounded him with their hands on their swords.
“Not a threat.”42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveXdo46wFI
He said. “A warning.” He studied Vander for a second before pushing him away.42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMw6e3JSyJ
“If I find out you even breathe in her direction, you will regret it.”
“No more than the42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouVMERxT8p
King regrets making you a General I’m sure.” Vander choked out. “I’m sure the42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67e69nZFhP
prince would find this very interesting.”
“I don’t know42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmeEyYgX9B
what he sees in you, you worthless trash.” With that he pushed past them42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0Iiw1z0pN
disappearing inside the castle.
“He’s really42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3CmsifRon
possessive of his daughter isn’t he?” Alex asked.
“He’s possessive42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6tiAl47s3
of the power she could give him through breeding.” Vander sighed. He rubbed his42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHfuAC3IAC
neck to try and rub the feeling back into it.
“Vander if he42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroeZQlJBpd
touches you again, kill him.” Charles growled. “I will deal with the fall back,42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcp6tVBGs3
but he will not touch you again without dire consequences.”

bowed his head. “Now let’s go. I expect this party will be interesting.”
