Chapter 19

Paige's P.O.V.

I found myself immediately sprinting through the dense woods. We had split into three groups and spread out over the forest.

Suddenly, Connor and Travis mentioned us to stop and creep forward. Behind the bushes stood about 5 Apollo campers and I could see more up in the trees.

Connor gripped my arm and whispered to me.

"We will go out there and distract them, whilst you run ahead and get the flag."

"What? Why me?"

"Because your our least experienced fighter and wouldn't last five minutes as a distraction." He stated bluntly.

"What if there's someone guarding the flag?" I ask.

"You've got a sword, your not completely useless."

"Gee thanks." I replied sarcastically.

"When we run out, wait about 20 seconds and run straight through those trees there, that's where the flag is." He said pointing to a set if trees.

Sure enough, I could see a glimmer of red fabric through the dense undergrowth. I nodded at Connor before him and the rest of our group burst out from behind the bush and started battling fiercely with the Apollo cabin.

I didn't give it another thought. I turned and sprinted through the trees with my sword drawn.

Just as I was about to reach the flag, somebody fell right on top of me.

I looked up and saw a pair of bright golden eyes.

"So we meet again." Derek said in his deep sexy voice. "Only problem is, I can't let you get the flag."

"Then we seem to be at a stalemate" I retorted, "because I can't let you win. I intend on being claimed today."

"Fine then, be my guest." He said whilst getting off of me. I started to make my way forward until I heard the unmissable sound of a bow string being pulled taught.

I turned around just in time to see Derek stood there with an arrow pointed directly at my head.

~♥~

"I never said I would go easy on you" he chuckled.

"You won't shoot me" I say walking slowly towards him.

"And why is that? 'No desserts for a week?' I think I can live with that"

I continued to walk forward until the tip of the arrow was just above my heart.

"Shoot me" I said softly, gazing up into his eyes.

Slowly he lowered his bow and closed the distance between us. I could feel his warm breath fan across my face.

Up close, I could see that his eyes were more light hazel than gold, and seemed to sparkle when the sunlight touched them.

His eyes flicked down to my lips. I drew my face closer until we were mere millimetres apart.

I felt a rush of excitement and suddenly his lips were on mine.

His hands moved to cup my cheeks. My hands rested lightly against his chest. He tasted like peppermint.

I felt shivers run up and down my spine as he grabbed my waist with one hand, pulling me closer to him.

I gasped slightly against his mouth and he kissed me rougher, me returning the favour.

Suddenly, I pulled away and sprang back from him.

"As fun as that was, I really must be off." I say as I leave the clearing.

Little did he know, I had taken the flag and his bowstring.
