A faeries Love, Samuel Plahetka [top business books of all time .TXT] 📗

"That story you told at the inn, it was marvalious. I loved it. I always love your stories."

"Thank you, but don't change the subject," Eadalla said. Evelyn turned her head away from Eadalla.

"Why didn't you leave me? I thought every bard wanted to preform?" Evelyn asked. Eadalla softly touched Evelyn's cheek and turned her head back towards her. Tears welled up in Evelyn's eyes. Eadalla smiled softly as she raised a finger and wiped the tears from Evelyn's eyes.

"I thought it was obvious why I haven't left you." Evelyn looked up into Eadalla's eyes and smilled softly. She could feel her heart racing in her chest. Suddenly, she felt a sharp pain. Everything went black.

Evelyn opened her eyes. She couldn't move. Looking around, she saw she was in a dark wooden building. It was completely bare except for a door on the far side of the room. Chains were wrapped around her and some kind of piller. She could feel the chains tighten and loosen.

"Whoose there?" She asked, fear echoeing in her voice.

"It's me, I'm chained up behind you, on the other side of this piller." Evelyn felt Eadalla's hand and slipped her hand into it.

"You should have taken the job at the inn," Evelyn said. She felt Eadalla's hand squeeze her's softly. She waited for what seemed like hours for a response.<use cttkoff.wps, except the end, the mage is calling a demon to destroy the kingdom. It comes forth and knocks everyone out. The magus laughs, and the demon is ready to kill the girl. Chrono steps in front of her and is killed, cyrus destroys the demon but dies himself.>

Eadalla listens carefully for any response from Evelyn.

"I couldn't leave you," Eadalla said.

"I...don't know what to say," Evelyn said. "I was always told feelings like that were wrong." Evelyn sighed.

"When we were in the faerie camp, Rilrae asked me if we were together. I wasn't sure how to answer." Evelyn paused, taking a deep breath."I've been having dreams about you. They are pleasurable and disturbing at the same time," Evelyn stopped, unable to continue.

"I've been having dreams about you for years," Eadalla said. "I.. wasn't going to tell you. I thought you didn't feel that way about me, I guess my own feelings were in the way, that I couldn't tell what your feelings were."

Evelyn squeezed Eadalla's hand."I didn't even know what my own feelings were. I've been so scared to say anything. These feelings were wrong, that You would leave me all alone in this strange land if I told you."

"I will never leave you," Eadalla said. A smile came across Evelyn's face.
