The Thief's Knight

Gah. I haven't updated in a long time, I know. Hopefully, being as summer is finally here, I will be suddenly struck with awesome inspiration.

Disclaimer: I don't own a lot, just my soul a ton of cloth. Yes, cloth. If I did own The Lioness Series, I would also have needles.

Summary: A little snippet on how George feels about Alanna.

This fic is dedicated to Sei. God bless you, girl.


She's nothing special

That's what they say

Hardly even human

Worth their time

Being female

Being a knight

All of this in a man's world.

But they don't know her

Pathetic fools

Not a beauty

Yet charming

In her own way

Perfectly special

Opposites attract

I know that phrase

Only to well

She's a knight

Sworn and bound to the law

The King's Champion

The Lioness

I'm the King of Thieves

Forever playing the unlawful game

Of stronger wits

With My Lord Provost

Like I said

Opposites attract

Why do I love her

That fickle question

Never, Do you love her

Am I really that transparent

For no one to ask

Do I love her

But, alas, of course I do

Forever and always

I cannot begin to even list

All the reasons why

I would risk body and soul

For her happiness

Some of them even I

The lover

Do not know

It could be her wit

So sharp and cunning

So very much like her sword

Her detirmination

Personality

Sarcastic, yet loving

Perhaps it's her eyes

Those violet orbs

So entrancing

Enticing

Exciting

Daring someone to tell her

Three little words

I cannot love her

For just one reason

Impossible

Not happening

Never to be done

How a body can love one

Just one

Thing about her

I shall never know

I do not want to know

But I do know one thing

The fact of the matter is

Alanna

The Lioness

My lady knight

I love you
