Sneak Peek [Blood Legacies] #2 (Hayden/Choice)
Added 2024-11-25 03:38:52 +0000 UTCThe corridors were wide, and yet there were too many people in them. Servants going from one side to the other, serving nobles, young, old and old. There were soldiers too, but not as many as before. Where once there had been rows in almost every corridor, now there were at most four or eight in each long hallway. Doors were open, windows too, and people were chatting, and yet it was so quiet, polite and low-key that the contrast with what it was like in the city gave you a slight feeling of dizziness, but it disappeared as quickly as it arrived.
Needless to say, you were an eye-catcher.
Hayden, Petrus' ${h_prin}, walking beside you, you, Darian's ${title} ${surname}. Whispers were made, and glances were lingered over. And there was no doubt that there would be gossip after and during this day.
"I thought you'd turn me down," Hayden said suddenly, causing you to give her/him a confused look. "Come with me." He/She explains.
"Why?"
"Duty." Hayden shrugs his/she shoulders, she/his expression bland." It seems to be quite important to you."
