Snippet #2

“Good evening, Elazar,” she saluted him.

“My princess.” A breathless sigh escaped his lips when he saw her there. ‘If angels existed they would look just like her.’ Her dark hair, twisted up on top her head, made her taller or perhaps she was a little taller. Her riding outfit seemed to reflect the orange tones in the horizon behind her and it brightened his heart.

“I wonder if My Lady would enjoy a ride tonight,” he said.

“Just for a short while,” she answered. “I need to retire early.”

He helped the princess onto her mare and gave her the reins. Soon, he too was on his horse and they headed in the direction of the lake.

“Does My Lady feel better now?” he asked. He noticed that her soft smile didn’t reach her beautiful eyes. When he had arrived six month earlier, she didn’t have a care, now in a scarce few months, she looks preoccupied, silent and sad.

“I’m scared,” she answered. His horse stopped of its own accord, but hers kept going.  He clicked his tongue and reached her side.

“May I know of what, My Lady?”

They passed through the familiar forest that was still warm from the heat of the day.

“Everything: me, my father, Chancellor Rasptane, Axel, the slaves. Things have changed so much in a few weeks and I’ve learned much, but it all leaves me insecure and alone.”
