rare connection

Life is given for free but happiness comes with a cost that many can't afford to pay. *********** Even with the dark grey clouds that hovered over the vast sky and the dim light provided by the fire torch that was on the verge of being blown off by the wind, he could still see the glimmer in her eyes. The very same glimmer that appeared in those brown eyes everytime she was happy and for some reason, tonight he was unable to resist hir urges to steal a part of her. She was still standing by the door waiting for him to leave but he had not taken more than three steps before he halted and turned. His features were darker in contrast to the white shirt that he wore and the look on his face was a predatory one. Instead of getting scared, she watched him take the three stairs that led to her room's door and he was a few inches away from her, he finally spoke up. "If there is one thing that I hate, it's having regrets and I know that I will regret if I do not do this." A part of her was confused by his words and another part felt like she knew what he meant by those words.

Lilith commented.

Once he had reduced a distance between them, he finally spoke up. "I was out of the palace. You are ready?"

He inquired and giving him a nod, she stepped into the fighting ground and picking up the heavy sword, she unsheathed it.

The first move was made by her to which she tried to attack Richard and in defense that needed no struggles, he lifted his own sword to shield himself from the attack and as a result, their swords collided against each other.

With each attack made by her, Richard easily dodged it and in no time, she grew tired and when Richard saw that she was about to lose her balance, he moved towards her to which Lilith striked as first as she could. Though Richard managed to dodge the attack, Lilith's sword had grazed his shirt and there was a wound that quickly healed itself.
