and a fair amount of them absolutely…cruel, but do not forget what I put her through all those years ago.”

Yeah that doesn’t really cancel out bud

He patted my shoulder lightly. “You’ll never have to know, Lia.”

Welp you’re doomed Lukas

She had a small vial of red liquid that I could only assume to be some kind of rare wine half full in her hands.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU IDIOT

I am looking forward to seeing you once you return home

Well you’ll be dead so…

a few months ago she started coming here to share a glass of wine at night. When it began, it was around once a week. Recently it’s been almost nightly.

Oh you mean to poison you?

I would like to think that she is finally trying to put the past behind us.”

She’s trying to put you below her, actually. In a fucking grave.

something about all of that didn’t sit right with me.

You all deserve what’s coming if no one can figure out that she’s poisoning THE KING. IS THERE NO ONE IN THIS GODS DAMN CASTLE WITH A BRAIN?!

That mouth on her could use some work, but I just tuned her out most of the time, anyway.

This gave me cancer

Nope, didn’t like that.

Same.

She would always think that she was in control when the truth was that, as long as I was around, that would never be the case.

Oh really, fuckhead? Please explain to the class exactly how you are in control.

I wouldn't stop until these lands were soaking with the blood of my enemy, instead of the blood of my brothers.

Listen… have you ever heard of Zoloft? I’m just curious.

The fae believed our numbers were dropping drastically, when in reality we had grown.

How are you having that much sex in the middle of a war?

as she bent down at my table—her breasts now inches from my face.

What even is this tactic?

Kicking up his mud-covered boots on the table, coating my maps in the fallen dirt, he grabbed the ale I had been drinking and finished it off.

I nominate Gage and Avery for mates. Thank you, that is all.

“Oh, calm your tits.”

We needed you 2 paragraphs ago.

It carried a note from one of our scouts planted in the city stating that the king and queen heard of our plan to make camp at Ceto Bay.

So the Queen’s “sources” are Wikipedia.

These creatures were fucking barbaric.

Idk hanging is pretty straightforward. Maybe I read too much fantasy smut.

We all have needs, yanno.” Each word was dragged out, and panic swelled in my chest, but I couldn't let that show on my face.

I have a feeling they aren’t actually great at combat so I think you’re good

The male’s shouts of pain were music to my ears as they continued to echo from behind me.

Eh, 1.5/10 FMC fight scene

or was anyway before I fucked up.” I could see the sadness lingering in his stare from across the room.

Noooooo stoppp

“Will you stay here with me tonight?” He looked just as surprised as I felt

🤮

but I knew I could eventually carve my way back into her heart.

Listen… I love a morally grey shadow daddy as much as the next guy.. you are not that.

He grasped my hand tightly and shook it in greeting. “Did it work?” he asked.

Okay I am disappointed in myself for not seeing this coming.

and went after her pussy was no exception.

Hooooooold the fucking god damn shit on. They weren’t “going after some pussy” you fucking idiot

“To climbing the ladder,” I replied, right before I sent the entire drink to the back of my throat.

Dina can we get a “things Locke would say” count? Alternative note: I kind of agree with the genocidal human more and more with each Kellan thought.

hesitation, punched him straight in the gut.

Can we trade out FMCs please? I want this one.

“We leave no survivors,” I stated.

Yeah but you will

If I need to bathe in the blood of my enemies to make sure my people are able to sleep soundly at night, then so be it. If you two do not agree with that, then you are in my way.”

Wow that was a really weird thing that you said out loud.

“No, Captain!” The crew shouted in unison.

Creepy

fingers into the mud, smearing some across my face to help blend into the forest.

You can literally skip that step I don’t think it’s going to do shit.

The noises could only be described as resembling what bodies would sound like dropping to the ground.

Well it doesn’t really resemble that if it IS that

“What is someone with a pretty little voice like that doing out here?” I asked, trying to think quickly of how to get out of this.

I fucking hate all of you

She was probably just the captain’s whore who got lucky with her bow earlier.

Why do I hate you as much as Kellan

and I also no longer trusted Kellan.

I don’t think I even need to say it.
