The Lost Elf Warrior

Chapter Thirty Four

CLARITY

A cold shiver when up my spine, up my arms, the back of my neck as I feel the eyes of every male and female on me. I rub my arm as I stood near the drinking table alone. Hespeta when off to talk to Eldric for a bit but said she'll be back, I wanted some time alone to myself that I told her. She understood.

I had my back away as I heard footsteps approach me, but I did not turn around until they started talking.

"Clarity Riverwood," I turn around to be face with a male with a thigh jawline, golden eyes and long brown hair that was done in a half up man bun. He was gorgeous but I never seen him before. Not even around Mireworth Fortest castles, or the training yard, or inside the training room.

"I heard a lot about you" He came and stand next to me.

"You have?" I asked the first thing to him; he finish his glass of wine before setting down on the table.

"The reader that can see elves" I chuckle at his words. Never get old does it.

"Is that what everyone seems to call me now?" I raise my brow making a grin appear on his face.

"I'm Lucius from the Summer Court" He reach out his hand for me to take.

"Clarity, but you already know that" We both chuckle at my words. I accept his hand as he bowl his head and gave a kiss on the top of my palm. It send a shiver down my arm; my heart was beating out my chest and felt my face burn up.

"So, what brings you here, to Above the Mountains, Lucius?" I asked, I pick up a glass of elven wine and took a sip out of it.

"Just come to see that trials, I must say that Thorn Snake you battled against could have had your head off" He said. He came to see me in these trials.

"I'm flattered" I said biting my bottom lip with a smile.

"Where were you from before you arrive in Mireworth Fortess?" He asked.

"In a village call Riverwood, I grew up there since I can remember" I explain. I felt eyes on me it was not Lucius golden eyes on, but it was someone else's. A pair I know too well to suck the soul out of me.

"I hope I see you again after your last trial" He said.

"I hope I survive the last trial first" I said with a shy smile on my face.

"You will, you past two" He said.

"Well, I hope to see you again" I said. I want to see him again after the trials, but I don't know when. Why do I feel like this, wanting to meet a strange elf from the Summer Court who I barley even know?

"You should visit the Summer Court sometime" He said but the sound on his voice sound like a demand then a question. I shake it off.

"I'll have to see I'm kind off on a mission as I am in the trials" I said I play with the chain around my neck with my fingers.

"What kind?" He asked.

"My mother, she's missing" I said.

"Ah," He said.

"Shame mine our dead" He said, my face fell, sorrow written on my face.

"I'm sorry" I said my hand over my heart.

"Don't be all parents die to give the new decade a chance. Yours might be dead too" He said, but I won't believe it. I know she's alive.

"Would you care for a dance?" Lucius asked, his hand out for me to take.
