Bab 24: Chapter 24 : The Fates

~SINCLAIR~

"How is it going?" Alaric asked, looking here and there as if to make sure there were no eavesdroppers, even though they were in the King's chambers.

Sin looked at him, amused. "How is what going?"

"Courting the Queen, of course."

Ah, that. He shrugged on a pair of gloves that helped him pull his punches, ignoring Alaric. "Going by that smile on your face, she's being receptive?"

Sin sighed. "Stay out of my love life, old man. I know you still want me to leave her alone, but I think she's beginning to warm up to me." It was a struggle not to blush after that sentence. He tried to concentrate on what he was doing, which was another struggle because a single mention of Vannie was all it took to make him fuzzy.

But still, it was a training day. It'd be right not to get distracted.

Sin usually didn't train with guns, preferring the heavy weight of a blade in his hands, so he clasped a sword to his side. "We talked about what happened." And she kissed me. Willingly.
