Noah pov
"What can I say! I am a genius when it cos to fencing. I can copy steps of my competitor just by looking at them" she replied proudly with a smirk but i know that she was lying. She was lying all this ti.
Her eyes were filled with fear when she was fighting. But then it suddenly turned cold and filled with bloodlust. She had enmity with the man she had fought with, but yet she talks to him so sweetly.
I did not know why, but when she was fighting. I wanted to move and hug her and tell her that everything would be fine. That she was not alone. She made rember the ti when I had felt the sa, when my mother had died from the cruel hands of the lady I used to call mother too. While my father just stayed there like a spectator!
He did not even move to stop his wife or looked at my mother twice, as if she was nothing to him. Ha! That lady gave him her life, her innocence and a son yet he did not spare a tear on her death!
That created the hatred in but when i looked at the hate filled eyes of Abigail, her hatred felt much more than . It clenched my heart and for a mont I felt trouble breathing.
But why!?
She had a loving family, caring father, an overprotective brother. She did not know but that day when I tornted her on my page, it was a one day thing. I was not in a mood to tornt her daily, yet her brother had co to and threatened . He was even ready to break all the rules and fight with for her.
Even after getting so much love and care, what had created hatred and void inside such a young girl!
"Would you keep staring at or say sothing? And if there is nothing, would you leave my way?" I blinked and ca out of my thoughts as I listened to her annoying voice.
"I would leave if you tell the truth, i have asked you so many tis, yet you did not reply or feed lies" i replied bluntly but she just shook her head.
"I have told you but you did not trust at all, and I can not give you explanations anyti. You have to trust , that is all I can ask of you." she replied, shaking her head.
I stoked there silently as I did not know what to say to convince her! I didn't even know why I even cared! Why was I even noticing her so much! Haven't I decided to stay away from all the nobles and hate them all my life?!
She sighed as she looked at my worried and tensed face.
Noah, all these things have nothing to do with you. I am grateful for your tily help but you should not get too attached to all this." her voice was filled with loneliness and before i could analyze, my hands moved to her shoulder and patterned her.
As if assuring her that everything would be fine. She did not need to worry. She was not alone.
But as if a switch had been pressed. She blinked and her loneso eyes turned greedy.
"Noah, I forgot to ask you. How much gold coins did the royal highness pay?" Sotis I really had a hard ti following her lead.
"Well I sent a trusted friend there. I did not want to ruin my day by eting and talking to royal nobles.
He passed a bag but I did not open it to see how many coins it had. But by the weight I can tell it was not that heavy.`` I replied honestly.
I had seen the confusion and doubts in the eyes of William. I could not et him personally. In case, he would realise who i was! No! No one should know! This secret would die with .
"Ehh. If that miser did not pay enough, I would personally go and ask for a calculated amount. I thought he is famous for his extravagant life, that was the only reason I did not ask him for a fixed price." she started cursing the prince as if he was nothing but a roadside loafer.
I chuckled unconsciously looking at her brooding eyes. She really was fearless, and free of all the fakery aristocrats had.
"Do not laugh, co show how much he had paid. I need to open a shop and pay a lot of bills from that money." all her anger towards the crown prince was poured over as she started glaring at .
"Hey, it is not my mistake that he paid less, okay?" I replied, though I still felt amused by her behaviour. I was sure if she would ask, her father would give her keys of treasure in a heartbeat, yet she was here! Fighting and brooding over so coins.
I shook my head at her remarks. If one would not know, she would be taken as a gold digger.
She started walking with hurried footsteps glaring at for my slow speed and then opened the door of my quarters as if it belonged to them.
"Hey since you are not serving anymore, you should return the key!" I forwards my hand to get the key but she puts it back in her pocket.
"It is for an ergency. It is not like there is sothing to steal in your quarter." she added nonchalantly.
"No, but you barge in anyti!" I replied as I still rember how casually she was standing when I last ca out after taking a bath. My cheeks burnt even thinking about that incident, but I was sure there was not a single sign of embarrassnt on her face.
"Ah.. you are blushing Noah!" she said with a chuckle.
