A COURT OF THORNS AND ROSES FREE EPUB SKIN

Something told me that he did not laugh often. 'And it is not polite to hold a sword to a girls throat, did your mother not teach you any manners?' I stuck my tongue out at him, and that made the boy in the shadows laugh which brought a smile to my face. 'That is not polite to ask-' The boy holding the sword to my throat said. 'What happened to your hands?' I asked bluntly, and it almost seemed like he flinched at the question. 'I do not think she will be much harm to us.' Another young boy says from the shadows, I narrowed my violet eyes as he walks out of the corner of the room and looks at me. 'Who are you?' I asked him, his eyebrows lower in either confusion or frustration as I repeated his question back to him. 'Who are you?' The boy asked, I observed him, he was still a child-like me but he did not seem much older- maybe about two years elder to me, and considering I was only 8 meant he must be around 10. I stopped a smirk from forming and instead acted scared mother had always told me I could be a performer.

I felt coldness at my neck and slowly opened my eyes to see a boy holding a small sword to my throat, a practice sword- he would not be able to pierce my skin with it even if he tried. It was my first time at an Illyrian camp and this chase was probably the most interesting thing that happened to me here- or so I thought.

I finally reached my mothers small house and slammed the door behind me, I locked all of the locks and sighed out of relief as I closed my eyes and giggled to myself. A thrill of adrenaline ran through me as I heard them ordering soldiers to grab me, most of them laugh at me as I ran by not daring to lay a hand on the High Lord's daughter. The ground had become a slush of mud and Ice as I ran through the camp.Ī grin spread across my face as I heard the camp lords swear in the tent I had just come from, stealing their most valuable weapons.
