I stared at Alec for a few seconds looking at Alec skeptically.
- All right! All right! - I answered. - If I get in the way or put you or any other man in danger, I'll put my sword through your chest myself. Do you understand?
- Fair enough!
- Good, we're clear! - I said before I turned around and headed for the horse. - We leave in ten minutes.
Alec nodded and tied the cape back to his neck. I prayed Keilan was still alive and there was still time to get to him.
- Wait for me, buddy, yeah, I'm on my way!
Chapter 06
Alec
I kept looking at the temperamental redhead who had just threatened me. Once again I tried to look back on where I knew Bree. She was very reminiscent of someone I had been with, but I couldn't remember exactly who I was with. Her eyes were really very familiar and something about me said we knew each other for a long time. It wasn't just that! Something in his attitudes inflated my ego and urged me to discover what was underneath all that leather that covered his slender body. Although we live in a cold and humid country, the amount of leather used even as adornment instigated my imagination. I wonder what she was hiding.
I stared at Bree's delicate silhouette, which was standing a little further in front of me talking to one of the men. His arms were delicate, his back narrow and his waist very thin. The round buttocks were generous and very straight, tight against the leather pants she wore. The sight of my teeth sticking in each stern made my limb turn in my pants. I took a deep breath trying to control my urge to go to her, tie her up and possess her until dawn. I kept imagining those long legs around my waist as I slowly penetrated it on my feet. Those hairs that reminded you of fire? I bet it was long enough for me to hold them as I penetrated it on my knees, tearing every groan out of those generous red lips.
- Stop it, Alec! - I whispered to myself. - Your mission here is another one. You need to find a person, so clear this mind polluted by moments of lust.
I looked away from Bree's breasts. They were also tempting and seemed to fit in the palm of my hand. She stretched her palm to smooth out the back of the horse she was riding. The thin and long fingers were slowly sliding over the animal's fur and I imagined it would be on my chest. She whispered something to the animal that was lying around and I soon imagined her whispering my name as I took her to ecstasy. I sighed, shaking my head. Seducing Bree was a much more complicated task than proving to my father that I was not only capable of governing in a political way, but could also command an army. To my he, I was nothing but a fragile boy who needed to learn to grow up. Ah! If he knew the whole truth!
After Cora's death, he wanted to protect me in every way. Thinking that because I am the middle child, it would be safer to send me to study politics outside the country. So they thought! Not that I didn't study, but it wasn't exactly the time he assumed it would be.
In theory, for my father, I was responsible for the attack that killed our sister because she had no ability to protect her. I had to prove him wrong, and after returning from "my time of study," I discovered that he had requested Alistair's return in order to marry him. I knew Alistair would hate to get married and become king before his time, but I saw in that an opportunity to complete my revenge. That's why I insisted that my father send me to the front, even though I knew that Alistair wouldn't like it at all and that he would be frustrated to break our deal. I was sorry to have to take my brother's place on the battlefield and take him away from the promise our sister had made to avenge her, but I had my own plans for revenge and that night I would have the first chance.
- That's great! - Bree's voice sounded scoffing at me out of reverie. - Looks like we got a dreamer in camp.
I lowered my gaze to face that of Bree, who was standing right in front of me with his arms crossed and with a very impatient expression on his face. I couldn't help but look at her generous neckline and the pair of breasts that almost jumped out of it because of the way she compressed them with her arms. I smiled ironically at her and it seemed to piss her off even more, because Bree snorted.
- Do you know how beautiful you look when you're angry? - I fired.
- And you're very annoying! - she returned it. - I'd like to urge you to stay at the camp.
I laughed at the way she was talking, trying to be courteous. That way of talking didn't suit Breanna, and I'd only known her for a few hours.
- That's out of the question, like I said a few minutes ago. - I mean it seriously and I've stretched out my whole body in a threatening way. - I know you think I can't defend myself. I also know I'm nothing but a spoiled prince in your eyes. I can assure you, you are mistaken in thinking
