-I smile pulling her up behind me. I tap my heels to the horses flanks and set it off into a gentle canter-
-I blush feeling her arms around me. I smile glad for her company. I pull my hood up concealing my face. My eyes dart back and forth. These roads are notorious for bandits.-
- I think about everything that happened yesterday, I found out that they don't want rivalry just as much as I don't, I found out a princess in the infinity family is an assassin, and I met sal...-
-My horse whinnies quietly in warning that something is there. I gently touch his he's calming him- "Good boy..." -I speak one word knowing my hood will hide my lips- "Where?" -The ranger horse trained to act as he does points his head to the left in the trees. I move only my eyes to give no indication. I see a slight movement. I speak another word to the horse- "Release." -The horse goes back to acting normally. I whistle three ascending notes and wait for a reply. Three descending notes answer in the direction my horse pointed and I sigh in relief knowing its one of my men.-
That's true - I miss riding horses but I can't since I ran away on my horse and they couldn't find me for a week, also cuz I broke my arm multiple times when bandits tried attacking me -
-I smile going into thought. I think about how Karina listened to me and actually cared when I told her what I went through. I also found myself pondering why I trusted her with my biggest secret. She was instantly likable. I didn't even trust Luke with the secret. I come up with only one possible answer why I was so willing to share it with her. I like her...."
- I think about sal and how I was the first to know his secret, and how he asked me if I wanted to do something later, and his laugh....-
-I picture her smile in my head. That blasted smile that seems to just draw me into her eyes. It's contagious. It would surely brighten up any room or make anyone's day better. I see her castle come into view-
