"You're such a fucking liar, I know you told the guards."
"I did no such thing," he spit as he turned to walk away from me.
I followed him. "Where do you think your going?"
"Back to the tavern to have a fucking drink," he snapped waving his hand in the air.
"Your not going to make it that far."
He turned around and I pressed the gun up against his temple, and he immediately dropped to his knees.
"Princess Elodie... please..."
"See, you're a fucking liar. I never told you my real name."
"Please.. don't," he begged.
"No." And with that, I pulled the trigger.
