Chapter 32 Someone

    “So, Jeb has finally found her.” Kevin says. He looked happy.

    “Who’s Jeb?” I ask.

    “Well if you have been watching Marilynn, you would know that a guard has come to help them.” He stares at me.

    “I’m sorry, have you been able to watch him?” He nods.

    “Jeb’s father was an old friend of mine, I thought that he would be the king in the future, but Madelyn forbid him to see my little girl. Since then he trained to become a castle guard.”

    I nod, “So thanks to Jeb finding Marilynn, you can watch Marilynn?”

    Kevin smiles, “I watched Jeb fought Terrian for Marilynn, and I was even able to send Marilynn a message.”

    I nod again and stare at the black, I saw Marilynn sleeping in Terrian’s arms; Madelyn came up the ridge, looking sad.

    “Well, Marilynn, you’ve survived another day, five more left.”

    Madelyn walked to the edge of the ridge and went to sleep. Marilynn stirred in Terrian’s arms, waking Terrian up, he smiles at her. He looks at Jeb. Jeb is sitting near a fire, staring at them.

    “She’ll be mine someday, just watch. I’ll win her heart and you’ll be left behind, dead.”

    Terrian smirks at Jeb, “Just try, we still fighting tomorrow?”

    “Of course, Monster.”

    Terrian goes back to sleep, Jeb stares up at the night sky.

    I’m staring back at the darkness, I have a feeling we’ll meet someone new.
