Chapter 14: Knight
A/N: This is before Broken Spell 1. It is also before chapter 11. Leanbow becomes a knight and Udonna tells him what she now thinks of him.
Leanbow sat silently in the meadow. Jacan and Greg stood guard as Leanbow meditated alone. He was the only member of the team to attempt to reach Knighthood. The others could not—they were not the foretold Mystic Force of legend.
The following dawn, he was officially knighted. That night, during the feast, he followed Udonna around, like a lost puppy.
"Leanbow, you look like a lost puppy," Snow Prince said.
He grinned sheepishly and then said, "I need to talk to you."
Snow Prince nodded and the two men left the feast for a few minutes. "I want to marry Udonna," Leanbow said, calmly.
"You have my blessing—and my permission—to marry my little sister," Snow Prince said. "Take good care of her."
Leanbow nodded. "I will, sir," he vowed.
The two rejoined the feast and Udonna wrapped her arms around Leanbow's waist. "I guess I can finally—officially—call you my knight in shining armor, huh, Lee?" she asked.
"What was I before?" he pouted.
"My unofficial knight in shining armor," she responded, giggling. She kissed him gently and the two found themselves locked in a very passionate liplock.
Niella scowled and yelled, "Hey, enough of that. You two can play kissy face later—like when you're alone—and not in the middle of this amazing feast, which, if you don't stop kissing each other, you're going to miss."
The two lovers blushed furiously and then ate, watching the other carefully.
