"I don't need a man to take care of me,"
With a big smirk on my face I speak out the last bit of my sentence. "I am the man."

The kingdoms of Orena are starting to see hard times. They've started to slowly get...
We're going to meet someone in this chapter, any guesses on who it might be? :)
Enjoyy!

I got the dish duty for this week, the housework divided between us two. They get changed every week, so right now I have the dishes while Ascian has the food. Next week it'll be the other way around and so on.
I listen to the quiet, the birds chirping outside. I hum to some tune I heard at lacuna's market and just enjoy the alone time. Right now, Ascian is out doing some of his obligatory work that the Royals had put for him but I knew he wouldn't be out very late tonight. Otherwise, I would have had to make the food, ew.
I hear some shuffling outside of the cabin but think none of it. It isn't rare to see or hear some animals walking around, even some bears have been located around. Which does get me a little unsettled when thinking about it.
I continue washing the plate I am holding, drying with the kitchen cloth and putting the plate in a holder beside the sink.
Just when I am about to pick up a cup the door slams open and quickly gets slammed shut too.
A scream comes out of me and my arm is already pointing a dagger to the intruder.
It takes my mind a few seconds to catch up with my eyes and I finally recognize who has come into our home.
"Reyna?" They call out.
It snaps me out of my trance and I drop my dagger, running straight at them and hugging them as hard as possible to my body.
"Is it really you?" I whisper in his chest.
"Yes, Anna. It really is me. Great to see you too," Weylyn says back.
He hugs me back just as hard.
"Wait, you weren't followed right? And are you alright? Is Kace alright? What is happening over-"
"Calm down, one question at a time please." He smiles a little at my ranting. "I wasn't followed. I checked thrice to be completely sure. I wouldn't risk your health or life for my running."
"Are you okay then? He hasn't hurt you or anything?" I prob.
"I'm okay, he hasn't hurt me physically. Though he is draining me mentally. For a man who isn't a King or a Prince, he demands and makes decisions left and right without my consent or thought in it. And if he asks my opinion, he won't weigh it with his opinion.
"Everything is just chaos right now, if I can't get him in line the kingdom will fall to ruins before I have time to take over. But don't you worry, I'll do my best as fast as I can. And then you can come back home when he can't make decisions as I am his King."
Home. Such a strange word for something that doesn't feel like.. home, anymore.
I just smiled at him, but quickly turned worried again.
