five>>> soft

Murmurs and whispers invade my ears causing me to slightly move feeling the grasp of both of the grounders to tighten. I squeeze my eyes together keeping them closed, hearing a set of doors open. 

The noise of the other grounders has died down. It's completely silent except for the scraping of my boots against the tiles and the heaviness of the grounders footsteps. We have to be inside of the tower by now.But if that's true...I don't even know what's to happen. I really thought they were to kill me in the woods. I was ready for it, but when they stopped...It tore something out of me. What that was? I haven't a clue-

"Heda in there?" A familiar grounder spoke. Gently, my eyes begin fluttering open just as two doors open. I knew the doors. The doors of the throne room and when they open my eyes met Lexa's soft green ones. Yet that doesn't last long as I'm dragged into the room and tossed down to my knees. But I can't even support myself. I begin to fall but that would be too easy. A pair of hands grands me, keeping me up on my knees. I sink my teeth into the gag, closing my eyes a moment. 

"I thought you said for them to kill her," an unknown voice speaks. This immediately causes me to open my eyes. My eyes look to Lexa first who keeps her green eyes on me, looking over every inch of me with a gentle look. Then my eyes travel to the left of her finding a bald haired man with what looks like he's wearing a robe. His eyes stare at me, a disgusted, irritated look spread across his face. 

"Plans change Titus," Lexa answers. I flick my eyes to her. Her soft gaze no longer. Instead it's a serious, determined look. But the thing is, she's not even looking at me...

"Heda, you know what you must do. If word gets out to the other clans, we are done for." 

Silence fills the room and I drop my head, closing my eyes. Titus is giving me really bad vibes and I can barely think of feel anything. But by the way he looks at me and the way he speaks it's obvious he doesn't like me. Probably even wants me dead like these other grounders. Yet honestly...I don't care anymore. 

"Leave us," Lexa finally speaks. I feel hands remove from me and I almost fall to the floor. Luckily I catch myself, but not without the expense of feeling sharp pains throughout my body. 

"Heda, you must listen-"

"I am commander! You take orders from me Titus-" Lexa pauses, cutting the bald man off. "I will deal with the clans, but for now leave us. I do not want to be interrupted." 

An unusual silence fills the air before I hear footsteps walk past me. I flinch a bit as they walk by, but nonetheless when I hear the door open then close I feel myself calm a bit. Yet, that same silence remains until I feel a presence near me. I clench my jaw, tensing a bit before feeling two fingers punch my chin picking up my head. As my head is gently lifted I slowly flutter my eyes open to be met with green ones. That soft gaze from before appears in front of me and for some reason I feel my shoulders relax. My eyes slowly look back and forth between Lexa's eyes, still feeling her fingers on my chin.
