A LITTLE CHARADE I

Cowardice?

Lord Langmore stared at me with a taunting grin on his face. He seemed to know how much his words affected me. How dare he call me a coward when he didn't know exactly what was wrong with me? How dare he call me a freaking coward? I growled at the thought, I could feel my rage building inside of me.

"Arianne!"

I turned to look at Ivan who was removing the arrow that was lodged at his back. "Don't listen to him!

Stay where you are!"

"Oh, it's only a matter of time before we get to her!" Lord Langmore said teasingly to Ivan who growled at him.

I released a low growl of my own. Lord Langmore turned to look at me with a look of amusement on his face. "You are growling, a sign that you are angry but you can't do anything about it!"

"Shut up Langmore!" Kiran yelled at him.

"Do not talk to her!" Ivan yelled at him as he fought of more guards that were raising their swords at

him.
