Song For This Chapter: The Power Of Love Is Here Now by Alexia Chellun
Years Into The Future….
Elien;
"Don't you dare take that off!" Lioran's voice snaps at me like a whip, and I scoff as I drop my hands from the blindfold wrapped tightly around my eyes.
"I am your husband. Why do you have me blindfolded like you're about to sell me off?" I say to him dryly, as I stand in what I can only assume is the centre of our training lawn.
The ground beneath my boots feels familiar… But there's a faint scent of oil and metal… and the distant crackling of firewood.
"You're insufferable," Lioran shoots back immediately, and I smile.
I hear him moving around quickly… Too quickly for my liking.
There's a soft thud, then a muttered curse.
I tilt my head.
"You're running," I note in plain dislike, and he answers immediately, the way he always does when he's lying.
"I am not running."
"You are running," I note as I cross my arms over my chest, and I hear him slow down.
