I knew what a sight I must have been right then, covered in dirt and twigs, my face a darker color than the usual caramel due to the flush of anger rising to my cheeks, my eyes now fully a bright, intense green, a color I got from my mother, my long chestnut hair falling out of its braid, bow at my back and sword dangling at my side. No wonder the other 3 men quickly moved out of the way and dropped their hands to their hilts. I stepped up to my father’s desk, where the one and only King Richard Chaplain-Stepford of Glazelle sat on an ornate padded chair, not even sparing me a glance as he chuckled and set his piercing brown eyes on the three men backed up against the far wall.

My breath came in short pants and my heart took off at a staccato pace. I felt my skin warm and my blood tingle and this was all just from seeing him again. At first he looked shocked, and then his face turned to a mask of longing. I could hardly believe that I was standing here staring into the eyes of Zach, my Zachary. And then just as quickly a wave of anger washed over his face. I was taken aback by the intensity. He winked at me and then he did the unthinkable. He reached for the girl beside him and laid a kiss on her that would make the Madame of a whore house blush. I quickly turned away and ran off in the other direction. How could I have been so stupid to think that Zach would want plain old me after what I did to him three years ago? He was way to gorgeous to sit around and long for me the same way that I craved him. It was nothing more that just a stupid little girls fantasy, but dammit, why did seeing the truth of it have to hurt so much?
