"Do you already need a break, Princess?" Damien asked as he seized his attacks for a fleeting second. His tone and gaze were a mixture of mockery and worry. Despite his determination to give her a hard time throughout the test, either to make her realize that she had a long way to go or to make her bring out her true potential, he was unable to keep the fact away that she wasn't just anyone but mate. The woman he loved the most.
Annalise let out a shaky breath as she stared back at her husband while trying to catch her breath. Fighting without a weapon against him was definitely not a great idea, but again, she was the worst with weapons since she hardly knew how to use them.
She and Kenric needed to work on their weapon training sessions more than she first thought would be necessary. She wasn't a fan of weapons but there was no denying that weapons were of great importance during a battle.
