Stinger:

I wait for my true love. When I was little my mother would tell me stories of a viking prince and a young maiden who gets rescued from a dragon and they live happily ever after. I actually feel like my life is likened unto this tale.

He is so handsome and I am of age to be married. I had just turned thirteen a few weeks ago. Nathaniel told me before he left that he was fourteen, the age of a man.

Nathaniel rushes over to me after Magistrate had used magic to bring him here. I rush into his arms, he picks me up and spins me around. Then pulls me down, his hands under my arm picks, pressing him closer to me. I press my sweet lips against his salty ones. His hair is full of sweat as I run my fingers through his brown locks. His eyes are the brightest blue I had ever seen.

"Stinger." He whispered my name. My heart skips a beat.

"Nathaniel." I smile. "You did it."

"Yeah." He looks like he had seen a ghost.

It makes me wonder who I am destined to marry. I need someone who can protect me, make me feel safe in our future home and be able to protect my children.

But I love him anyways and I can protect this family single handily.

He throws me up onto a horse I was guarding. He throws Magistrate the reigns of another horse before hoping on the back with me. He puts his arms around me to grab the reigns.

Boy! Do I love this boy.
