"Standing behind you?" Although she knew she was weak, Rafael had never asked her to stand behind her as a wall flower while he would kill witches or humans for her sake.
He had always taken her as an ally, when it was about capturing witches from the fair or when fighting with knights, when she had come out to fight, he had only welcomed her.
She had thought that he was not considerate enough for her life but now that Lucian was showing that consideration, why was chest felt stuff and her body burnt in annoyance and humiliation.
It might have been that she had started to take her as equal and competent enough to fight!
The men standing there were fast and agile, they would not wait for them to decide who was going to fight with them.
As soon as they reached the door, many other men came out from the dark and the two guards gave them a wide grin when they got surrounded by other men.
