Book 2 – Ch#7
Kieran Lycroft. Victor Lycroft, my target‘s, very own non.
How had I managed to screw things up this badly? within twenty–four bourg, I felt like my life had gone from being careful, structured precise, into what I could only describe as completo erratic shatnbles.
And worse still, it was as if I had no control. Control over my oltuation, over myself and *. especially* no control when it came to this man, Kieran.
*Unfortunately, my father wasn‘t able to make it tonight,” Kieran replied “Heliad an important matter come up and sent me in his stead to extend our town‘s support.”
I could smell his scent so vividly, the wind now no longer masking it from me so intoxicating yet inviting… I’d never come across anything like it before.
“A shame. But nevertheless, I‘m glad you could join us. I‘ve heard that you‘ll be taking hio upon his retirement. Is it common to elect representatives based on family in your town?“.
Kieran gave a half laugh and looked around for a second, almost as if the question made him uncomfortable. “We‘re just all very close up north in Ashwood. My father is a great role model and inspired me to take over for him I‘m honoured that the people of my town agree.”
His eyes then flicked back to my own, a look of curiosity and... something else that I couldn‘t quite place mixed in. But whatever it was, I wanted more of it.
“Oh, apologies, where are my manners?” said my father, extending a hand towards me. “Allow me to introduce you to Raven.”
“Raven? I’m glad to finally catch your name,” he said, then turned back to Eric, “You know, we actually had a moment to meet in the gardens just now.”
....Oh no… please, no.
My father raised a brow in confusion. “Oh? Is that where she ran off to?”
“You wouldn’t believe it but...,” Kieran chuckled lightly, apparently finding the whole thing hilarious, “she must have gotten quite the scare because....”
And it was then that Kieran finally looked back towards me, his sentence slowly coming to a stop
as our eyes met.
“...Because..?” my father prompted.
“Oh… She ah…,” Kieran stumbled, quickly clearing his throat.“...She jumped in surprise. I guess 1 accidentally snuck up on her.”
“That’s certainly uncharacteristic of her. My daughter is normally a hard one to take unaware.
“Your... daughter?” Kieran asked, confused. “Raven is your daughter?”
“That‘s right.”
*And, and she grew up here in Loudila Olly?”
