Aelin
I woke up to sun shining on my face and my heart began racing upon seeing Rowan beside me sleeping peacefully, his arms wrapped around me and the small smile on his face made me grin. I got up making it out of the tent without waking up Rowan. I saw a few witches getting ready and feeding their wyverns.
I found Manon and Asterin talking and I hugged Manon as she frowned in her thoughts.
"Manon, do you think you might have some sort of tonic for my cycle." I asked her and she asked a witch nearby to fetch it to control the pain. The witch brought it and I murmured thank you and left the two witches to their strategic planning.
I went back to the tent and drank it and finger brushed my hair and wore my boots.
I turned to grab a hair tie and found Rowan staring at me with soft eyes. And I grabbed the hair tie and made a pony and tied it up and blushed slightly. Rowan got up and walked over to me and then for a moment we stared into each other's eyes, and then he gently pulled the hair tie back and undid my hair.
"I like it this way." Rowan murmur and then went to get changed into proper clean clothes.
He came back in a cloak and laughed when he saw my flustered face, and then snaked an arm around my waist. And then walked out with me and met the cadre and then walked to the the supposed war meeting.
"Oh look the queen is here." Fenrys spoke his eyes gleaming.
I made a face at him and then walked with Rowan who still couldn't keep his face straight.
But after a minute or so he returned to his serious demeanour.
We sat down at the table and listened to Manon's explanation.
"But what if we approach from the other side and enter Anielle's territory first." Asterin said and I nodded in agreement.
"I agree with Asterin but if we approach with the southern content's troops to aid them and also reach Terrasen in time, and Manon, you and Ansel's troops can head straight to Terrasen. Terrasen needs the most people right now, the bane wouldn't be able to hold back the valg." I spoke
Gavriel and Fenrys murmured in agreement and Conall and Lorcan rolled their eyes and Vaughan let out a snort at their childish attitude.
"It's not attitude it's class." Conall stated
"ItS nOt AtTiDuDe, ItS cLaSs." Aelin mimicked and a short followed.
"Class my arse, where does your class go when your with those low life escorts, sweetie." Aelin spoke sweetly
Conall went red and a howl of laughter came from Fenrys and to make the "howl" real also he turned into a wolf and howled.
"Well it was amusing Aelin but we have to proceed though I would love seeing Lorain die from both embarrassment and actual death." Manan spoke and then proceeded explaining
"Well about travel Enda and I searched for ships and found some, were paying them for travel so all the troops can go." Sellene said
"Great planning sellene." Conall said in a dark voice.
Sellene ignored him and kept speaking of her plan without giving a shit, making Vaughan snort at her silliness. But then Conall grabbed her wrist and pulled her towards him as she tried to break free. Rowan stood up as so did enda but that didn't shock me, the thing that got me puzzled was the fact that Vaughan broke her free from Conall's grip and shoved the latter away. And sellene looked
Shocked herself and blushed slightly. Rowan rolled his eyes and smirked and enda couldn't keep himself from grinning. Sellene bit her lip and walked back to her seat and sat down but kept looking at her hand where Vaughan had grabbed her hand, I almost told her she was acting like so in love but I couldn't say anything as I myself was too in love. I guess they might as well be mates. I looked Rowan in the eye conveying my question to him and he nodded in yes.
I lowkey might be squealing as I would want sellene to have a mate but then again forcing a mating bond on someone who is a ruthless killer and might even be broken after killing people on a witch's command, it might be wrong. But as far as I know Sellene being one of the "selfless" Whitethorns would never put herself in that risk. If she liked Vaughan truly or not, I don't know but I do know her in a way that I have an idea of her character that she is an adoring person who never acts rude or annoying.
So I Aelin Ashryver Galathynius decided that I'm going with this ship, sailed or sunk, I don't care but they are my top favourite not together couple. As Rowan tried to understand my thoughts he gave me that "are you crazy" look and palmed his forehead, as he chuckled.
"Not to interrupt Aelin but could you and Rowan actually not do this as we're trying to discuss war." Conall spoke
"Well you could stop with your sultry gazes at Sellene then or shall I gouge your eyes out." I spoke sweetly.
"You bitch!" Conall spoke as he stood up and approached me, Rowan stood up but I made him sit down and kept sitting as well.
"I thought that you would change the name but whatsoever I like it, ridiculous it is, 'fire breathing bitch queen' , y'know it gives me i hope your reign is long vibes." I spoke chucking loudly
"You filthy halfblood!" Conall spat in her face
I sat calmly
"You're a murderer, an assassin serving an empire your parents and uncle got killed by, you're a whore, a princess who takes her name for granted and took her kingdom and threw it, you'll never be a queen, you'll never be a ruler. Never! Nehemia's sacrifice meant nothing to you!" He spokeAnd Aelin Ashryver Galathynius broke, and flames spewed everywhere, she fell over to the ground as the flames grew larger and the wild fire spread, Rowan ran to her but her flames didn't let anyone in, he could see her breaking piece by piece. His mind replayed the scene where Aelin was being fed on by Valg princes and Narrok. Rowan tried breaking in her fire but the fire singed his hand. Then he focused on the bond that linked their souls and trailed along it, he saw Aelin sobbing as her insides tore apart and as she shoved that pain in and in but it came out roaring, how her heart ached for her beloved companion, Nehemia Ytger.
How Aelin was broken, and he saw the scene when Chaol Westfall called her a monster and told her it was her fault in school when she burned a wall down in rift hold and then her friend Dorian got captured, then He saw Sam Cortland's mutilated body as Aelin lay beside it and sobbed, how she got whipped on her back in endovier, he felt the lashes and he sobbed. Then he saw young Aelin crying out as she saw her parents dead and that scream fractured him. He closed his eyes and shut them tight."Go rattle the stars with her prince."
Mala told Rowan and so Rowan would rattle the stars and heal Aelin,
Whatever it takesAnd so Rowan gathered his courage and with his heart full of love for Aelin Ashryver Galathynius, he pushed his limits and entered the fire that was threatening to burn him as well. And so he with firm determination in his face entered his mate's flames and faced them as if they were his own, he opened his arms for the flames to come and engulf him, and so Rowan whitethorn was ready to die for his mate and with Aelin's name on his lips ran through the fire to get his mate as his cloak flew in the air behind him.
Lmao I was like cackling while writing this, I hope y'all don't kill me if I try to kill Aelin. I am in the mood of killing my fav characters. So sorry. Maybe I won't and maybe I will, but sorry as well for updating it late.
