Romeo gasped as she snatched the daggers and held one to his throat.
“Who are you?” she demanded, though her voice was quiet and sounded slightly timid, she narrowed her eyes at him.
Romeo frowned and shoved her off him impatiently.
“Oh, I’m sorry, how rude of me for not introducing myself, I kind of just got stabbed by some crazy forest girl that I did nothing wrong by,” he said, his tone flat and full of sarcasm. “I think that you should be telling me who you are and why the hell you just stabbed me for no reason, twice!” he said, his voice rising in annoyance.
The girl sat back on her haunches and looked at him with her lips pursed into a thin line for at least a minute before nodding once.
“I’m Ivory,” she said quietly and tilted her head at him. “Sorry bout stabbing you, I didn’t know you were like me,” she mumbled and shrugged casually.
Romeo sighed and nodded slowly.
“It’s fine. I’m Romeo,” he said and wiped some of the blood that was running down his arm.
Ivory sat there and licked the blood off her knives, “Where are you headed? Any chance I can tag along, I don’t have any family or friends and I haven’t seen one of us in a while. You don’t look like you have any family or friends either, aye,” she said and raised an eyebrow at him questioningly.
Romeo shrugged slightly but nodded at her, “I’m going where ever I want when I want, trying to keep away from hunters, ya know? … I guess you can come, for a bit,” he muttered the last part cautiously and was hoping that in future he wouldn’t regret his decision to let her come with him.
