Chapter 140: Fun (3)
"You are going to kill me, aren’t you?"
"Annalise," Rafael warned, turning around to face her. It was only now he saw the distance she placed between them. She was more than four arm’s lengths away from him. "Why are you all the way back there?"
"So I can have a good chance to live if you try to-"
"For the last time, I am not trying to kill you. If you keep this up, I might. Come here, Annalise," Rafael said, pointing right in front of him. "Why would I even want to kill you?"
"Because I questioned the way the kingdom works and a few other things. If you get rid of me, you get rid of your problem with Delilah. I think we should stay like this so I can keep an eye out for anyone following us. How am I not to think you are trying to kill me when you are leading me into trees where there is no one else?" Annalise questioned, looking back to see if Thomas was still stalking her.
They might have to kill Rafael now.
"Annalise," Rafael sighed, touching his temple. How was it possible that he liked her? ’How?’ The question echoed in his mind.
He heard of knights sometimes losing their minds after being at war and the long travels getting to them, but the only thing he only suffered was his inability to get a peaceful night’s rest. Something else had to be off about him to have feelings for Annalise who made him want to pull his hair out so many times.
"I am not trying to kill you. You asked me what I enjoyed and I am taking you there. Come closer before I call this night short and return to the manor," he added.
