I DONT OWN SHADOW AND BONE ONLY WHAT I WRITE! PLEASE REVIEW
Darkling POV
The entire time she was showing off her light at the winter fete General Kirigan could not take his eyes off of Alina, nor could she take her eyes off of him he noted with great pleasure. He was also having waring thoughts within himself. War was going and as his mother had taught him wanting made you weak. However he not only was finding that he was wanting her but her was needing her and that messes with his plans with the fold he could no longer could see himself using her. At that moment all he felt was something strange, something he thought long gone to never return. When she was done he had helped her down. They were separated and he had a moment to think. Was he really going to try this with her willing at his side than collar her? She was young but she had she the hardships of war up close even if she was just a mapmaker as she had once claimed. She had lost more to it than any other thing besides the fold. He had to get her alone after that kiss earlier I am hoping she will be open to me. Cause I won't let that tracker have her she is better then him. He then began to run his eyes over the top of the crowd looking for her looking for his sun summoner. Only to be interrupted by ivan telling him two men from the frist army say they have found the stag. I sigh and say "take them to the war room I'll be right there."
Alina's POV
The General introduced me and the way he did it made me feel special and nervous. I still felt where I kissed him earlier. With that playing in my mind I smile and start my demonstration. However I find i can't keep my eyes off General kirigan. It stunned her to realize she no longer thought of him as the darkling as everyone else did, yes there were still times she feared him now but he was either the general or Aleksander to her. She hoped he would never again be either of those things, but she mentally chided herself saying, you kissed him not the other way around just cause he kissed back doesn't mean anything. Starting small with one orb then two I throw them over the crowd with Aleksander looking at me I feel courageous and twist my hand. My light does amazing things with a smile I finally let the light die and people start calling me saint I'm confused but just look to Aleksander as he helps me doown. We were separated the moment I got down tho I do wish we could've stayed together longer to many people wanted to meet the sun summoner after that demonstration.
Darkling POV
I head to my war room with images of the kiss from early in my mind instead of the stag. When we reach the room the guard lets me know there are two and they have only touched the war table also one looks like he might have been beaten by Botkin once or twice. I put on darkling face and walk in, " so these are the two who claim they found the stag." "No sir he did." One stated so I stopped paying him attention and turn to the other. "And you are?" He introduces himself and I know who he is at once but I can't give that away. This boy is getting on my nerves and I can't kill him or she will never forgive me or at least not for years but I'm not willing to wait now that I've just got her. He wont show me where the stag is till I take him to her I wanna shout she is mine but I can't. So I say people try to get in this way and test him to find out something I dont know about her... I find out she love blue irises that will help me later. I promise to take her to him but I'm going to try to get her to choose me frist I need to know she will stay.
