Kayden POV

It's has been a week since I came to my senses but still my little sister is scolding  me as if I'm a two year child who can't take care of himself ,well that's making me insane !! I don't consider it as a wound for me it's like a scratch but our perception is quite different about it

I got to know a lot about Tristan he was Surprisingly quite a gentlemen and deserved the crown as well as the throne
Lord stark was very proud of him . We have become good friends in this short period of time as for Victioria she is also
Very nice she's not any ordinary princess who would not even able to see a mouse booing at them , she is quite brave I've never met a girl who was so tough and can defeat 5 men single handed not even River but then how could I forget that she's Lord Stark's daughter as well as his student he must have trained both of them a lot , my grandpa used to tell
me that Lord Stark was his best student he could ever had not even my unkind father could best him

A soft knock on my room's door took me to back to reality and deceasing my reign of thoughts

"Please come in "I said as politely while laying on the bed as my dear sister and Victoria has refrained me to do so

The door opened and closed as it bought none other than Lord Stark bearing a smile on his face

"So how's our prince?" He curtly asked while taking a seat next to my bed as I struggled to sit up his hand stopped me on my tracks and adviced  me to lay still

"I'm no prince I believe you are fully aware of it my lord "I said as I got up from my position to sit up and continued "I've been banished from my own kingdom"

"One can't change the reality no matter how hard you try it you will always remain a prince as you are Lucas own flesh and blood so don't you dare to degrade yourself !! Now answer the damn question" he angrily said while his eyes becoming soft

" I'm fine my Lord I don't even consider it as a wound but River doesn't listen to me"
I said while running a hand over the neatly stitched wound

"I've talked to the healer now you can be bedridden "he quietly said

"Oh that's great now we both can leave and we both won't bother you all we have done is enough to disturb you all" I said rhetorically

"Are out of your mind you will stay with us both of you!! And you are no burden on us! So stop believing that you are any kind of burden on me or any of us!!" Lord Stark said ferociously

"My apologies my Lord but can't accept such obligation you have already done a
Lot for us we don't want to trouble you" I humbly said

"Kayden don't think like that, I take you like a son , I know you , you don't like to take any obligations but must I remind you it's not any obligation its what you both deserve I know you don't give a damn about yourself but a least think about River's ..................and if it's bothering you a lot that much then stay here as my student!! As you know the training will begin in 2 days I always wanted to teach you and river so please don't leave I had promised your grandpa that I'll teach you,train you in case he's not with you so let me keep my promise" Lord Stark finished while I silently listened to him comprehensively while my mind was calculating that I couldn't risk River's life she's the only family I'm left with I couldn't risk it so I made the decision

"Alright my lord perhaps we both need to keep our word you keep to your promise of teaching us and I'll keep my promise of protecting the welfare of my sister"I said while nodding my head which brought a smirk on his face

"But you have to promise me something " I said straightly looking into his black eyes

"What?"he questioned me

"My lord as you have accepted us as your student you will allow us to accept you as our mentor and we will also pay you once we finish our training and you will accept it as a tribute "I earnestly said with glint of respect in my eyes for him

"Alright I will accept it you have my word" he said confidently

"As you know Tristan & Victoria are my students and the rest will shortly join us in 2 days time and then it will start its not easy I must admit but I know you both are extraordinary let's see what lies in your fate Kayden Odinson" Lord Stark said

"My fate is to fulfill the dream of my grandpa which is the unification of Demenor even if it means going against the King and the crown prince of Demenor then I will sacrifice myself for the cause "I determinedly said

"Always remember Kayden you are not alone!! " he said while patting my back and I meekly nodded
"I know you have gone through a lot Kayden but believe in yourself don't think low of yourself !! I've seen you since you were a boy none of this is your fault remember that I will make sure that you will succeed I'll make you ,River , Victoria and Tristan the best warriors this world has ever seen not because of my affection towards you all but you all are extraordinary and you all are born to establish righteousness in this world as none of us posses the capability that you four hold and I'm not making that up this has been predicted by the priests that's your destiny, your fate!! " he quietly said while leaving as I tried to comprehend every single word that he just said

But can I do it ? Can I conquer my dream No!No! Kayden don't be imbecile you have to fight your weakness and emerge as victorious people have hurt me a lot but not now!!!!Never I will never let anyone now hurt me I know that I'm not capable of love so I won't run after love from now my only aim of my life is to make grandpa's dream come true the unification of Demenor !!
