The King's Mercenary

Under the attack of a neighboring country, King Livingston was desperate for protection for his family. So desperate that he was willing to hire a mercenary to protect them. The mercenary goes by the name of Shadow, a teenage girl who's mental stability was in question. Seemingly cold hearted and utterly emotionless with the occasional anger, Shadow can hardly be considered a good person. It had never bothered her, she was fine with the way she was. But working in the castle was enough to make both her and King Livingston reconsider their outlook on life. Running from her past, Shadow realizes that there are some things that you simply can't run from. But perhaps with new friends she hadn't expected to make, the confrontation may not be as bad as she had originally anticipated.
