“You should always be treated like a princess, milady.” Guy lightly brushed his lips against the back of her hand.
Mal? She was associated with someone named ‘Mal’? Did she just work with this Mal or was there something going on there he would have to take care of? Guy was not going to be so nice with any competition this time. He had spared Hood, for Marian’s sake. But ‘Mal’ would not be so lucky.
“It sounds like a very exciting life, milady. I would say I’m sorry your … ship is grounded, but we both know I would be lying.” It was a bit interesting to think of the ships sailing through the stars. He was certain the priests would find a reason to claim such visions were blasphemous, but it wouldn’t be the first time he was excommunicated.
“If you were not grounded, then I would never would have had the pleasure of meeting you.” Guy thought that this girl might be why he was brought to the City. They were meant to be together.
