- All right, Keilan! - said Alec preventing him from saying anything. - I think I deserved her anger attack. I'm so sorry! His name is...
I stared at his funny look and shook my head.
- Breanna, but you can call me Bree! - I answered dry.
- Bree? - I asked. - Just Bree?
- Exactly! - I emphasized. - Just Bree!
Alec laughed and his laughter gave me the creeps I don't know where they came from. A wave of electric current ran through my spine from the lumbar spine to the back of my neck. I changed the position of the legs trying to hide that they were bambas. The truth is that I was still affected by the stolen kiss and it became clear the moment I stared at her fleshy lips. Alec was different and no longer looked like a boy, but he was still cheeky. His traits were ruder. The face was more angular with his square chin and a well-done beard gave him a more serious look. The thick eyebrows adorned the dark blue eyes that reminded Alistair's eyes. To tell you the truth, that was the only trace that reminded me of Alistair.
- All right! All right! "Just Bree"! - he said ironically. - Can I get you a drink? So, who knows, you don't let me in on the whole situation around here.
- Of course, Your Highness! - I also returned with irony. - That is, if you behave like a gentleman. Otherwise, I'll be forced to rip your tongue out with one of my daggers.
Alec looked at me in surprise and then addressed Keilan.
- Does she really have a dagger? - he asked.
- Several, actually! - Keilan answered with his eyes on me. - And she's very talented with them. If I were you, I'd be careful.
Alec laughed and sighed right away. He stared at me by passing his hands through the black hair that went up to the height of his shoulders.
- I will! - he said looking Keilan back and took a break. You've chosen to look at me. - You have my word!
- Oh, great! - said by releasing the handle of the sword that I was holding just in case. - Excuse me!
Leaving their presence, I walked to the nearest table and climbed on it. The watchful eyes of the men who watched accompanied me. Some already knew what awaited them and left.
- I'd really like to know if you don't have something more important to do instead of taking care of someone else's conversation. - said loud and clear. - The men under my command who are here are kindly returning to their posts. That's an order!
I paused and did not need much time to see that the men who were left were beginning to leave without looking back. I looked around holding the eyes of each of the other civilians who were there. Those who were still following my clash with Alec began to turn to a conversation with someone at their side. Others came out whistling as if nothing had happened.
- That's much better! - I whispered and came down from the table with a jump. - All right! All right! Please come with me, gentlemen!
I made a gesture that Alec and Keilan would head to the table where I was, but Keilan didn't move.
- Bree, I can't stay! - he said between his teeth. - I have to arrange for a change of guard.
Alec, who watched us closely, came forward in the conversation.
- But isn't it too soon for that? - he asked. - The sunset has barely begun to fall.
- Yeah, I know that, but I was thinking of getting some men together to hunt and get more supplies. - Keilan answered seriously. - I don't want to risk men running out of food. It's tedious enough to wait for a position from our command.
Alec snorted when I heard him say that, and I frowned. I wonder what he meant by those words. I took a serious look at Keilan and decided not to try to think about those words.
- All right! All right! - I said and stretched out my hand. - Be careful!
- I always do! - Keilan answered by kissing my hand and making a measurement.
I hated it when he did that.
- Be gentle! - he fired ironically.
- Yeah, I can't promise anymore! - I answered with a debauched smile.
Keilan shook his head, as if to say that I had no sense and looked in the direction of the prince bowing. He left me alone with Alec. I sighed before marching towards the table and sitting in the chair in front of Alec. Pulling one of the empty chairs, I put my feet on it and made a gesture for a tavern to come to us.
- Yeah, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. - she said.
- I want a pint of beer. - I asked for and pointed to
