Sneak Peak: A Bond of Blades
Added 2024-07-23 16:06:22 +0000 UTCI can see you remember that night well, beloved.
You took my hands, we absconded to the forest, and we…It was the first of many stolen kisses…and it seemed that every moment we could share would be just that…stolen.
Peace wouldn’t last of course, the old grudges held deep. Those moments became fewer and farther between…
I think from the beginning I knew that there were only two outcomes destiny had in store for us…
You would fall to my blade…or fall in my bed.
Our armies will descend upon your camp. This could be the last battle you will ever see, and I won’t be able to stop it. My clan elders call for blood.
There is only one way, my beloved. Only one way we can prevent this fate.
You must become mine.
If you surrender to me, agree to be…be mine…we can unite our clans, and be together always. Isn’t that what you wanted? Not a handful of stolen, secret moments, fleeting embraces. When last we were at peace, you said you would marry me if you could.
You can’t marry me…but you can be mine.
Convince your people to accept my rule, and no more blood will be shed. We can end this, once and for all.
All you have to do…is agree to be mine forever.
In my – in our tent, in our bed, you will be cherished. Adored. You know this.
No more fighting…
No more struggle…
Just you…and me…and the bond we share…the bond we have always shared.
It’s the only way.
