Chapter 13
After the unnerving meeting with132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06meW7LxWO
Veyar, again, Vander tucked Mari into her bed and quietly left so he didn’t132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoB6RXBs21
disturb anyone in the apartment. Once he arrived at the bottom of the steps,132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrQuOPKQnT
her guards handed him back his sword while the Blades bowed to both him and132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxfMAXPm7s
Shea. Then he headed back to his old room.
He hated that he was now132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RSAMp0Lx1
practically confined to the castle, but he knew it came from a place of care.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQD1bOcJeHY
This was the second time in as many weeks he had been attacked, and even though132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCW0W8WgseB
he hadn’t been harmed this time, the fact that he had been so blatantly132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3Fzhb1r8k
targeted meant he was in danger no matter what. He was lucky to have Alex132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD14OlY8RHs
watching his back, but if the assassins were smart, they would wait until he132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMEA4BSNt9
was alone during the festivities to celebrate the prince’s marriage while132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdYmoajJH4
everyone was distracted. It’s what he would do. But for now, he had to focus on132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSsjDYgi7T
getting the recruits ready. Despite what his grandfather thought, they were132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFSDmAajgw
better off being used rather than left to the side. If things were going the132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiB65Ybj4Z6
way he expected they would, they would have to be ready sooner rather than132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKJqT5YsCX
later.
The five recruits stood in front132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoQbT2eWdw
of him, each admiring the new swords he had given to them from the Blade132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZA2RzUfrWe
armory. They would be the exact swords they would be given upon graduating, but132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDRWIi3MdN
Vander had gone to Charles early in the morning, shortly before meeting them132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERk6w9q2bx
for the training session and begged him to allow them to train with their132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cbGYuhbs8
actual swords just in case. They argued for a little while before the older man132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEI1tR8gvXY
finally relented under the condition that he come to see how they were doing.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zA6hsQQvx
Vander agreed and now Charles was standing between him and Alex looking the132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXzlGyPRRQ
recruits over with a critical eye.
“These swords will be your132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsTkSrDYIl
livelihood.” Vander instructed as he paced in front of the recruits as they132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZCHNYJLOd
stared down at their weapons with a mixture of awe and fear. “They are made132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamwFPxJsnE
with viriuum from the Northern Mountains. They will not bend; they will not132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskIFS8m4JC
break. They were created with your abilities in mind, they are an extension of132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJvCEOVvEM
you and need to be treated with respect.”
“I thought we were supposed to get132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISHBjil9fu
these only when we became full Blades.” Rooster asked. “Or, at the very least,132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnHLyS2kbJ
trainees, why do we have them now?”
“Circumstances may allow you to be132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbahFVZfKSD
graduated early.” Charles stepped up. “You’ve heard about the attacks on the132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50QuZl1Nct
castle and in the city. You might be needed early than originally planned, but132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHWgC4c2Mk
first you must prove to me you deserve the chance.” Forest and Briar grinned132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAPcjMf5YO
like a couple of idiots.
“What do we have to do?” They132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XuvSJ1rdR
asked in unison. To everyone’s surprise, aside from Vander’s, Charles unbuckled132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8A7HZUnvr
his sword then tossed it to Alex.
“You will have to132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77LULo1ZL1
fight against me.” Then he removed his jacket and tossed it to Vander. Despite132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMqZoV1ncm
how old he was, he was still an absolute unit of a man. His arms were thick132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEHS8fL4nK
from his years of fighting and training recruits as well as having the132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jPgJDEsOQ
knowledge of fighting packed into his head. Despite all the times Vander had132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5pBpOsxEK
challenged him since he was old enough to wear the uniform, he had never beaten132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPiuNkSwKZ
him, not once.
“One at a time or132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UywoKauVY
altogether?” Rooster asked.
“However, you132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeGGhchEsb
want.” Charles grinned. “Weapons are allowed, so just try and make this132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3wKURlAd6
entertaining for me.” The recruits emboldened by the challenge rose to their132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyIFWNigkX
feet.
Forever the good132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTP2brXc2l
sport, Rooster sheathed his sword, carefully placing his jacket on the ground132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJKJcSx7KS
and putting the sword on top. He stretched for a second before charging at his132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU58pCr09cC
Commander. He threw his weight around Charles’s middle to get him onto his132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0oaHH3zdq
back, but Charles stood his ground. He brought his fists up then hammered them132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbBgbwuatQ
down in Rooster’s back. When his grip weakened, Charles brought his knee up132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEP0bpLAwv
into Rooster’s stomach then flipped him around, so he hit the ground hard. He132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVxH8l5Ot5
went to stamp down on Rooster’s stomach, but he rolled away.
Rooster had taken132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0DRjMsUan
damage, that much was certain. He staggered back to his feet then spit out a132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWDrKG2nXG
wad of blood. Grinning, he raised his fists in front of him, but Vander could132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5wG3BFQEk
tell he didn’t have much left in him. His legs were shaking, and it was taking132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrA1bogHO1P
all his energy just to stand. However, he should have stayed down. Charles132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIft8kE2QFh
didn’t go easy on anyone; Vander knew that firsthand. Charles didn’t hesitate.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWr1izKvLl8
He began throwing punch after punch at Rooster. At first, he did a good job132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZt5EGFvyN
blocking, but it was like defending against a hammer. His arms became heavy,132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMs85HJ17nL
and he could no longer block many of the blows. He started taking strikes to132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFoMsyVSLm
his face and chest. Rooster’s eyes rolled to the back of his head, but he132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8a0seakRRV
stayed standing. Charles threw another punch but once he noticed Rooster’s132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMnDvXTOJw
condition, he stopped. A second later he132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjq99w7aCN
fell to the ground unconscious.
Charles didn’t132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dsCFnONKo
look bothered by beating up a recruit, but based on the admiration in his eye,132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgH56hjp7d
Rooster passed. That just left the other four. As usual, Forest and Briar132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOZKQEzoWm
decided to go after him together. Their teamwork has been a lot better since132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrM8MuIkT9
their trail in the forest, but they would still be no match for Charles.
They went after132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQIIXwMhIX
him, one on each side. Both aimed a punch to his cheek, but he blocked them,132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zXzmw7rCz
then grabbed their wrists and pulled them into each other. Their bodies132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoiu26wCdx
collided with a painful crack. They fell to the ground rubbing their heads132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0L3sIQnJgJ
together. They didn’t stay down for long, they again got up and began132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb073i2Yzrs
assaulting him, but Charles started to move. He made sure to keep himself away132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqLL5YIofw
from the two of them, always moving his body so they would get in each other’s132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCUqSMRuxv
way. They got so used to his movements that when he stopped, they kept going.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUG7Ecey3vh
Charles aimed a kick at Forest’s side which he wasn’t kick enough to move out132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zsTmxbOMY
of the way. He brought his arm up to block, but the kick was too forceful.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNu28n2NTmk
Forest collided with Briar and Vander was sure his arm was broken. The two of132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmShLH2ZF0
them didn’t get back up.
Charles didn’t132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxGXpknRMg
have time to see If they were alright. Eve came at him with her sword132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkIuf6Nk38
unsheathed. He slowly dodged sideways the sword trimmed off a couple of hairs132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBkskX5tJs
from his head. Not skipping a beat, once she realized she had missed, he turned132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMVLxt8Vkb
the blade and went for a horizontal slash aiming for his chest. He blocked the132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFiEdipLFf0
strike with his armored boot then slammed it onto the ground. If it was any132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciJiz3AbbV
other metal, it would have snapped in half. She let go of the hilt to throw a132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxCTqzdkMD
punch which he easily blocked. He countered by punching her in the jaw,132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5950KToll
knocking her unconscious.
Vander frowned as132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOQlQDHA7O
he looked at her body. She had lost so easily, but it had also been slobby.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAv0dPN9HP
During training in the woods, she was a much better fighter than she showed132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNX0VDEaDP
just now. Was he just blinded or had she intentionally thrown the match with132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHGsE9zmwj
the commander?
Charles got up132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNP91smhKYw
and looked over at Chicken who held his gaze. “And what do you have for me?” he132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLPSJ7WMSd
asked her.
“I’m not much of132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZX6n1kIWoQ
a fighter.” She rubbed the back of her head.
“Then what use132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhvZqcwJJs
are you to me?” he asked. If she was offended by the question she didn’t show132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr04JX6tYkZ
it.
“I have a perfect132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSAvAiHZrk
recall and excellent head for tactics.” She explained. “What I could do in the132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VvfGYWYDF
battle is negligible as to what I can do when it comes to planning.” Charles132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNQMBVSQYd
folded his arms and looked down at her thoughtfully. Then he proceeded to ask132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EQ3K2aiOa
her questions ranging from military history all the way to tactics and what she132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTMkrMauSR
would do in any given situation. If anything, that battle was more tense than132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9upQuyXat
the three he just had with the others. Vander couldn’t even keep track of what132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawKu6GSZbO
was being said. It took a few more minutes before Charles seemed to have been132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScshZRGmgb
satisfied and came back to collect both his sword and jacket.
“They learned132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0s33WZ4Q3Z
quickly these past six months.” Charles said. “Very well, I agree to them132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7ELsmSSij
becoming trainees, however, make sure that one knows how to fight.” He hooked a132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8UZsmSuDk
thumb back towards Chicken who had gone over to check on her brother. “Every132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIEdP20o0J
Blade must know, even if she spends her time as an advisor. No exceptions.”
“Yes sir.” Vander132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgvkJ1gxML
bowed.
“I also received132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIqnbSOiy2
news that the rest of the Warden’s will be arriving today. I want them properly132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKZ9MYX335
dressed and standing behind you once we greet them.”
“It will be132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswm1a3aT1L
done.” Satisfied, Charles left heading back towards the castle.
∙
It took about132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDXdthh9dS
thirty minutes for the recruits to awaken after the beating they took at132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxURuCYu3l
Charles’ hands. Vander quickly checked them for damage, but Charles was precise132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvi2xQkraEU
in his fighting. Aside from a few bruised ribs and sore stomachs, they were all132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePwVVYN7Ad
fine. Once he told them they had passed, they all celebrated by dancing around132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMFHhLsGVQ
and slapping each other on their backs, their pain long forgotten. Vander was132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFmeHnKmbF
even more surprised that Chicken passed even with her penchant for books132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowgP37PGJk
instead of fighting. He had told her what the Commander had told him, and she132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpT2BtrYFaA
agreed that she had to become better at fighting. She asked for more lessons132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvI1gkUY6l
and Alex agreed. He would be the one to train her. With that done he sent them132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdlyRfrbHK
to the dorms so they could get ready for the Warden’s arrival.
He quickly132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflUXrLFSPk
showered then got changed in his dress uniform. His pants were ironed and132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpEBBGRHpe
waiting from when he arrived back. His jacket was neatly pressed with the132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8oXaqCdYp
creases worked out of it. In a small display container were all the medals he132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqvdoSABw3
had received since joining and they had to be properly pinned on the jacket. It132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLlYRpoTyu
was a lot of work for a couple of hours, but it had to be done or it would132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzihuh4rxKi
reflect badly upon the King and his grandfather.
He put on his132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUO97EvH25
pants followed by a blue dress shirt then he sat down to polish his boots. Shea132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33bHrmfqtJ
sat on the bed watching all of this unfold when her head on top of her paws.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eoImBlHv5
Once his boots were right he placed them on and tied them tightly. He turned132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhinfgbY0kX
back to Shea.
“Get down here132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlODKHyXuZu
so I can brush your fur.”
“I don’t want132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PUc7Qfmmp
to go.” She whined.
“You have to.”132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6cT9AlDAC
He chided. “You are a Blade, and we are all expected to go. You can sit132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CKqNNyUri
behind me if you wish, but you will be there. Now get down here.” She132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVlfiADlaL
glared over at him but did as he asked. She sat down in-between his legs as he132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEWqfxMoj8
picked up the brush and oil then began combing her. She stayed still for it,132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLRds3K82T
but when he came to a knot she let her displeasure known with a low growl. He132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8C9FUxtY2
ignored her and kept going, even though he had to bribe her with more meat in132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLzxitCQ5r
exchange for not biting his hand. Fair trade.
The two of them132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzsAZxeone
made their way down the stairs and towards the castle door. There were Blades132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uf3vHrB6R
standing at attention on both sides of the red carpet where the Wardens would132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfu8Iv0zeZ
walk once they arrived. They would go to the throne room where they would meet132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wKjdpDkNj
with the others and the council to discuss the wedding and their roles in it,132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5FiNkLf3M
and maybe some matters of state. It was rare that outsides would be allowed in,132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOflijUR3l
and Vander wasn’t an exception.
Shea and Vander132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61HxJNjKlk
took their positions next to Charles, standing to his left, because the King132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIj8UWhPBK
was to the right. All the ranking Blades stood next to him while the council132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTi4Svjyko0
members stood on the King’s right side. Mari Drayson and her daughter stood132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mfIHatgNe
between the King and Viggo Visc, per the custom when any other Warden was in132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknEfDN2SfS
the city. Peyton stood to Viggo’s right while Bernard stood in the door way. To132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsdrbI68ef
the front, in between each, stood a soldier who would protect the council with132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQwTwwxtqq
their lives if it came down to it, only the King was left unprotected, as it132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMEpjaJLrO
was ceremonial, but also the job of a Blade to risk their lives for the King. Shea132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFtZGYSm2x
took her spot behind Vander but would be ready to act in case her friend’s life132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGr2LCJABy
was in danger. They didn’t have long to wait before the sounds of the drums132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1AQszMPFH
were heard from the Western Gates.
Even though the wardens132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAO3sDWG6ag
came from the north, west, and south, the western gate was the closest point132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSQ1Bajod9
between the three, so their entire entourage met there and walked through the132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb61HyzUD3O
streets until they reached the King. As the citizens were given enough of a132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoHGI4jL7N
warning, the streets were closed in celebration. Vander could hear the cheers132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeY5ZJb6uVO
all the way from where he stood, the noise made his sensitive ears hurt, but he132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXR4Ysyz2UG
had to stand strong, or others would get suspicious. It took nearly an hour for132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxl2pMwdZNX
the Warden’s to make their way to the inner ring, but their entrance was extravagant.
The first warden132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjETQB1yK5
to appear was Jira Jewelthorne, the Western Warden. He had short black hair and132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERR8ITf7Fo
black eyes. He wore extravagant and expensive clothing: today he wore opulent132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi918qPtD0Z
gold with red trim. His fingers were adorned with silver and gold rings with various132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTuJOKKqjQP
gemstones imbedded inside of them. He had no standing army. Instead, he hired132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPloKmZ4pti
mercenaries to protect his kingdom. There was a small squad of ten flaking his132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjECtqvpG68
horse as he rode. The Blades assigned to protected him were behind them and it132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaETWiiMsm
appeared as though they were holding chains for a man walking between them.
Right behind him132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGNE7Pudl4
came Leida Valariyan, the ruler of Stormcrag. Despite her young age, the132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KkkfTbEps
youngest of all the wardens, the weather made her cold and unyielding. She sat132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHB5fcJzs8X
stony faced upon her horse, her salt gray hair tied back in a ponytail, her132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiC6t4GPM5q
green eyes looking straight at the King. She was a warrior through and through.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyB95vJzoBE
The only person she brought with her was132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8o9k4kMu5U
her cloaked fighter, Drakon, No one knew what he looked like underneath that132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxSrqCyicp
ratty black cloak, even Vander’s eyes couldn’t pierce the shadows. Whoever he132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXuBrUAd3aj
was, he was enchanted. Five Blades with terrified expressions followed behind132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZ6rF8qSsJ
her. Charles would have to give them the next week off to recover.
The final warden132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GdZ2sF4M4
was Malakai Whitesun. He exuded power and strength. In wars past he was the132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUiDamEYnx
King’s most trusted confidant, and it was due to his family that the rest of132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjkB9raTiy
Eluvia was safe from Bricen’s attacks. His entire body was tanned from living132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECMsg0dY7H
down there and due to the heat he kept his head shaved. He wore a white vest,132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5M1dOIuAN9
with nothing else on underneath, and white poofy pants that allowed him to stay132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Qvn8XfBjx
cool even in the hottest conditions. He had his own general which was borrowed132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2BemVmzS9
from the city: Eric Jilena, the patriarch and husband to Anna Jilena. Sitting132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGySaZNz4l
behind him was his son, Alphonse, who was poised to take his father’s position.
The six main132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpKnemB9Tz
figures got down from their horses to walk up the red carpet while the others132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvm4czJmdr9
stayed where they were. A few feet from the King, each of them got down on one132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5BEAXzMjl
knee then bowed their heads.
“Rise my132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmlmcUdG4u
friends.” Malcom laughed. He walked down to greet them, his blue trimmed, white132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSkmJ1GF8w
cape dragged on to the floor behind him. He stood each of their hands in turn,132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjo1ilslP1
his royal signet out for everyone to see. While he got to Leida, she presented132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKviUVbdOhZ
her cheek so he could kiss it. “I hope your travels were fair.”
“They were132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSfAZ7dayx
indeed.” Jira laughed, his voice fake, but the gleam in his eyes weren’t as he132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTWA0mZaiy
gazed at the noblewomen standing in the line. “My mercenaries are in dire need132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YT7ZdHOcD
of food, drink and entertainment, as am I.”
“And they will132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mQVjwC8S9
have them.” Malcolm chuckled. “And how are you General? Are you excited to be132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqo4mc6QFK
back home?”
“I am my King.” Eric132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJKUCs34El
bowed. “I have missed my wife and other children greatly.”
“And you132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYDuAKdv9N
Alphonse?” he turned to the general’s youngest son.
“Yes, my lord.”132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa66pVwUmfU
Alphonse bowed his head. “Though I’m afraid this weather will take some time to132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEJXyNZM6P
get used to again.”
“I have food for132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lPhek3y0u
you all inside.” Malcolm turned to step back towards the castle. “If you would132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtSKmH7css
please follow me.”
“Not yet my132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrVhOSWHC1
King.” Malakai placed his hand on the King’s shoulder. Vander involuntarily132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJlH86qi6L
went for his sword, but his grandfather’s glare kept his hand still. “We have a132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZac5sPP98D
surprise for you.” Malakai turned and shouted: “MAKE WAY FOR THE PRINCE!” All132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fnO0lM8zy
at once, all those in attendance stepped aside and saluted. A carriage, unseen132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wu8VLAqYp
by everyone opened and Cuvera, along with two veiled women walked out. The last132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfxzTvP0O1
person out was General Jasper Valentin, Bree’s father.
Upon seeing his132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZ7o0R1tSa
father, Cuvera smiled. His sandy brown hair flowed in the wind as he locked the132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXXLGXz6b2
same-colored eyes on his father’s. He was wearing a smart blue colored jacket132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSb3Sfjx2Y
with the royal family’s crest etched on the front. On his hand was another,132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrfmbRy4Bj
identical signet ring, to his father’s. He ran up to embrace his father. After132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoq3safxQE2
a moment the two of them broke apart, but Malcolm held onto his son’s arms.
“I wasn’t132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU17w6Ab5fk
expecting you for another week.” He gasped. “Why have you arrived so soon.”
“We met up with132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8Rs9aQo3s
Lord Whiteson as he crossed the river, so we decided to go together. I left the132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpia6aQI2Y
main soldiers on the road as Malakai would be able to protect us.” He stepped132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZLZ4dHQWu
back to wave the two women forward. He wrapped his arms around the one wearing132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01X61xBS9E
red and orange. “This lovely lady is my betrothed, Kiara.” She removed her132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoRnHLNf3u
veil, and everyone released their breath they didn’t know they were holding.
Her skin was a132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXzAsU9HNY
deep brown color with vibrant golden eyes. Her dark brown hair was pulled back132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEHx72rDmK
into a loose weave, but there were some strands framing her face. You could132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZLKYLhETz
tell that her body was that of a warrior: lithe, muscular, lethal. Vander could132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bSHXarx5f
easily see her twirling on the battlefield cutting people down left and right.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSVbaBMRJX
He secretly hoped Cuvera knew what he was in for. Unknown to everyone other132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMpOvooZR5
than him, he could feel otherworldly power radiating from her that made him132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqDGtKsB03
nervous. It felt as though he was staring at the sun. Even Shea whimpered from132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgIwDXPpb9
behind him.
“It’s nice to132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaf2J9iHZy6
meet you all.” She curtsied. Everyone bowed their heads in respect to their132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SduX5uGo2
future queen. Malcolm walked up then kissed both her cheeks before embracing132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKIeJYJ3Uk
her.
“It’s wonderful132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXOuj09QcS
to meet you.” he laughed. “I hope my son has been treating you well on your132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzEp8eg5fK
travels together?” Kiara wrapped her arms through Cuvera’s.
“He’s been132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWecYeGqST4
perfect.” She smiled. Her gazed flickered to Vander. Upon noticing him her eyes132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevM6ysDViq
widened then she whispered something into his ear. He nodded his head then132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94C4H5aYcr
turned back to his father.
“There is one132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSesr8Ytvr
more person we’d like to introduce everyone too.” He motioned the mystery women132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4T7Yc45GP2
forward. She was dressed similarly to Kiara except her uniform was yellow and132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiuOiwYrIF
silver. She stepped forward then removed her veil. Without waiting for anyone132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4of5Jdcomi
to introduce her, she introduced herself:
“My name is132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCT7baxOOi
Eliza, Kiara’s younger sister and bodyguard.” She curtsied. “I hope to be of132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJlmVF2R7d
use to all of you here.” She looked over at Vander and the breath left his body132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8ibCfaA16
for a moment. She was the most beautiful person he had ever seen. She was132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOj8WZGmva
smaller than Kiara but had more defined muscles. Her brown hair was tied back132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVx4vZ5oPk
into a tight ponytail, her silver eyes looked at him as if she could see132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zZ2ZBjYWR
everything.
“It would be our132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuih3B0xvuC
honor to have you.” Charles answered.
“Let us go132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVb1QVT87E
inside.” Cuvera offered. “I’m tired from my travels and I’m sure the wardens132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWeOL6zxOM
are as well.”
“Of course.”132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tHYiqUxh1
Malcolm grinned. “Bernard made sure everyone’s rooms were made up properly and132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvEobnCR6x
we have spared no expense to have your men as comfortable down in the city as132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIusDxoyCNF
possible. I trust I don’t need to explain the rules?”
“No sir,”132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdc27Mr1KAB
Whitesun grinned. “We remember what happened last time.”
“Excellent.”132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLieixLjku
Malcolm clapped his hands. “Come my son, there is much I must talk with you132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRq05TxrDO
about. My dear Kiara, you should come to so we can get the chance to get to132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMG75KFxTKa
know each other.”
“Yes father.”132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2Y9PPklic
Malcolm laughed at that but wrapped his arms around her shoulders and escorted132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnqXtQQjv2
her in. Eliza followed close behind unwilling to leave her sister alone in132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrD8S9kzlm
foreign territory. When Cuvera walked past, he gripped Vander’s shoulder.
“Meet me132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3EccIWYGH
tonight.” He whispered into his ear. Vander nodded his head.
Soon all the132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7iru5S4ng
nobles disappeared back into the castle while their guards were taken into the132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡts1nNVortp
city to their lodgings. While they were here it meant more overtime for the132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSTdb6ldnL
Blades and city guards because they had to make sure they behaved themselves132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxb2YyPaKB
with the locals. The only ones left other than Charles and Vander were the two132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Y8bxuu80d
generals who seemed to be discussing something with Alphonse. A moment later132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95uwSHPt0z
they split up and both Eric and his son went into the castle, likely to see132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnyynN9WdZ
Anna. However, Jasper walked over to the two of them.
“Commander.” His132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58YBsuMEMK
voice was curt, angry.
“General.”132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcXfyl7JKY
Charles tried to hide the disdain in his voice.
“I heard my132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpraNMswnV
daughter went to see you.” Jasper glared down at Vander. He shrugged in132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpb6EgrucF
response. Suddenly Jasper grabbed Vander by the neck causing Shea to jump to132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxf3tO62xWz
her feet snarling. “You stay away from my daughter, or I will make sure you132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSHIx8r8SP
never see the light of day again.”
“Are you132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1c9wnuIWjc
threatening my grandson, General?” Charles asked. Suddenly Alexander and a few132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsq4y0Ur1PC
other Blades surrounded him with their hands on their swords.
“Not a threat.”132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZZzytoiq8
He said. “A warning.” He studied Vander for a second before pushing him away.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHQJChiUqd
“If I find out you even breathe in her direction, you will regret it.”
“No more than the132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviZaWwnEW7
King regrets making you a General I’m sure.” Vander choked out. “I’m sure the132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKaUl1Qmw7
prince would find this very interesting.”
“I don’t know132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIlBZxcO1H
what he sees in you, you worthless trash.” With that he pushed past them132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGwVbeKE3h
disappearing inside the castle.
“He’s really132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxZr024qEp
possessive of his daughter isn’t he?” Alex asked.
“He’s possessive132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oVkWEEjvD
of the power she could give him through breeding.” Vander sighed. He rubbed his132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfCL1vrmop
neck to try and rub the feeling back into it.
“Vander if he132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CBSRUlDmF
touches you again, kill him.” Charles growled. “I will deal with the fall back,132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLF0Xcu1eqX
but he will not touch you again without dire consequences.”

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