Arianna's heart was pounding with anticipation as she waited for Marcel to reveal his intention. She swallowed thickly, licking her lips nervously and knowing that the look on his face meant that it was serious.
So when he announced, "I want you to learn how to handle a gun,"
Arianna choked, "W-what?"
Her gaze lifted to his, searching the depths of his eyes and God knows, he was fucking serious.
"You want me to u-use a gun?" Arianna was having a hard time preserving that information.
"Not only that," Marcel told her, "Learn how to fight if possible. A war is coming and I won't sit still and watch you be the casualty loss."
He sighed, "I should have done that while you were with me but I was busy chasing after you and preserving your innocence." Marcel said with regret.
