The Prophecy- Book 1

Chapter 17

When I awoke the next day, I groaned remembering what had happened with Rayven. I buried my face in my pillow. I did not feel like seeing him after what we had done. I was not sure what would happen. It was not as if I loved him right. Maybe if I was lucky I could avoid him. He might even be too busy. I girl could hope.

I forced myself to get out of bed. A knock came at me door. I yelled for them to "hold on a sec." I got dressed. I heard Angel on the other side mumble an okay. Once I was dressed, I opened the door.

Angel stood there not looking to happy. In fact, he had his hands clenched. He must of heard about Ren interrupting is. I inwardly groaned, but stepped aside so he could come in.

I busied myself with brushing my hair.

"I got an interesting report last night from Ren." He said with clenched teeth.

"Oh yeah." I played dumb, not really wanting to explain myself to him.

"He said he heard fighting in Rayvens room, but when he went and checked on him, Ren said it had not looked like you were fighting." His eyes were tight.

I started to brush my teeth, trying to avoid answering him. I put up a hand signaling to wait for minute. I was trying to buy time.

Suddenly Rayven sauntered in. He narrowed his eyes at Angel, then smirked at me. "Awe good I am glad you are finally taking my advice on dental hygiene."

I spit, my face reddening. That insufferable jerk. Oh well did I expect him to change? At least maybe a little. I rinsed my mouth out, and wiped it dry. I finally turned to face them. "Morning Rayven what do I owe this displeasure." I gritted my teeth seething at him.

This only seemed to encourage him. "It's time for training princess."

"I don't want to train today." I crossed my arms. I mostly just did not want to train with him.

"We only have two more days tell the first arrivals come, then I will be busy. Which means princess you will train with me for the next two days!" We were now face to face both of us fuming.

Angel cleared his throat. Then he stepped between us. Fixing a pointed stare at Rayven. "She will not be training with you anymore. And she is not allowed to be in your room ever." He said, breathing heavy. His anger and annoyance coming off in waves.

Rayven snarled. "She is a grown women, she can make her own decisions Angelos. I would tread carefully." They were now both glaring at each other.

They were about the same height, but Angel was more broad, whereas Rayven was lean muscled. I mentally slapped myself, they are about to throw down, and here I am comparing them. I shook the thoughts out of my head and stepped between them pushing them apart. This could only end badly.

"Look you guys, I will not be training with either of you. I need to study wars right now, because as you may recall we are about to wage one. And I don't know about you, but I have never done that, so I will train on my own from now on, so I can spend more time studying." I said with a sharp tone.

They both looked at me like I had grown two heads. I sucked in a deep breath trying to calm myself. These two were really starting annoy me. I know Angel was jealous, but Rayven, I could not really read him. He was like a closed book. After, last night I thought maybe, but then today, he is back to himself.

"Perhaps some time not being around each other will be good for us?" I added finally when no one said anything.

"Alright, also might I recommend a title?" Rayven said. I looked at him in surprise. I had not thought of him as a reader. "You have a lot of time when you're flying through space to kill someone." He said reading my shocked expression. Then he walked over and grabbed my tablet. He scrolled through it and then tapped it a couple of times finding the book he wanted. "Here read this one. Now if you will excuse me I am going to train."
