Prologue
Beka's POV
I was fighting with the best of my abilities against a stormwing, they were attacking the city. "Get the hell out of here Cooper! Save your gixie!" Goodwin yelled over to me from her fight.
My gixie was the exact reason I was fighting, I was fighting to save her. "She is with Rosto she is safe." I kept telling myself over and over again. Rosto, her father would keep her safe at all costs.
Rosto POV
Saran was safe and sound in a locked chamber probably sleeping like the baby she is. I was fighting alongside my men like a good rouge does, I knew my Beka feared for my life just as I feared for hers, but we both knew better than to ask the other to sit out of this fight. She is a dog and I am the rouge. We are not husband and wife in the law's eyes, but we did jump over the fire at the Beltane festival. It was just for fun, but the Gods blessed us with Saran just the same. I will fight with all I had to keep her safe. We don't know why the stormwings are attacking, but once every month they attack, but this one was different it seemed that they were focusing allof their power at two places, my court and the kennel.
The stormwing took his wing and rammed it into my chest with every breath I felt my life drain away. I saw Kora kneel next to me and I heard myself say "Kora…. Take the key… in my pocket… and get…Saran to…Beka….." With that the Rouge was no more.
Kora's POV
I found the key and ran to Saran's room, and found the baby fast asleep like her father did not just die. I locked myself in the room till the sounds of the battle had quieted. Then I gathered the baby in my arms and made a run for the Kennel, hoping that Beka and Ersken were still alive. Ignoring all who I pasted I finally made it to the kennel. Beka, Clara, and Matthias were in the hospital room talking with a wounded dog.
Beka was the first to see me, at first she smiled, but then she saw my tear stained face. She took Saran in her arms and said "Rosto is gone." It was not a question.
"He died fighting Beka; it was how he always wanted to die. He will fly peacefully to the Black God's realm." I said trying to comfort her. She just nodded through her tears.
"Just to be sure I will keep the door closed so I won't have to hear the pigeons" She said. Holding Saran tightly to her chest.
Yes i know it was sad, like i have said before i am warped, anyway read and review!
