He lunges, his blade aiming towards my chest.
I meet his parry with my own, blocking it just inches before it pierces through. I imagine the sword plunging into the depths of my heart, and the image is enough to make me flinch when he strikes again. The metal whistles through air as I dodge.
"You'll never win this. Just surrender." he taunts, eyes narrowing.
"What more could I lose?" I gesture to the space around me. It is filled with lives and souls that should not have been there.
"Exactly. You only have yourself." He steps forward and leans down. "Which I'll take too," he whispers.

I should be in charge of this, it is too dangerous for a woman. I don't want you to get hurt." I hiss crossing my arms against my heavily embroidered half-sari, "This is my kingdom, just because I married you doesn't mean you automatically become King and rule over everything. This threat is targeting my kingdom and I am its Queen." I look seriously at him along with my heart pounding about how my people are going to react.

I have too, I have become refined, royally royal and trying to be as perfect a woman as possible. Still, I'm glad you are my husband. He breaks the silence with an icy voice, "Fine, do as you wish. But I will be there every step of the way whether you like it or not. Your. Majesty." Genre- Romance/Adventure *contains blood, violence and hopefully adorable romantic moments* Hope you enjoy!
