The Warrior (Kiss Me At Midnight) - Plot & Excerpts
It’s a new year; everything’s going to be–There was a streak of lightning, the following crack of thunder, and a sudden downpour of rain.–exactly the same.Edander sighed. He hadn’t really expected anything to change, but it had been nice to pretend that this year was going to be a little less hellacious, even just for the morning. He’d been deluded if he’d thought for one moment he’d receive some sort of reprieve in this kingdom. The clouds eternally brewed and the rain never stopped pouring and Edander couldn’t remember what it was like to be warm and dry.Sometimes, in the dark of the night, he thought about home, while the thunder crashed outside his window. Compared to this kingdom, most would consider it a desert, with the sun beating down and warm, dry breezes blowing through the open air houses in the afternoon. Rain was only a seasonal occurrence back home, and even then, it was nothing like the rain here, driving and biting and cold.With another sigh, he put it from his mind and kept trudging, thankful at least that the Conservatory had been designed by a competent architect who’d had it built almost entirely of stone.
