A Lick of Frost
“He moved in a blur of speed that left the room in streamers of color. It was almost as if he didn’t so much open the door and go through it but was moving so quickly that the door wasn’t solid enough to stop us. I wasn’t sure if the door opened or not, but we were on the other side of it. He turned me in his arms, so that he was carrying me like a child, or a bride on her wedding night. He moved down the hallway at a quick trot, away from the door and the sound of battle inside.I could order Ga...len around more than most of the guard. I thought about ordering him to stop, but I wasn’t certain what was happening. What if stopping was the wrong thing to do? What if the men I loved had given their lives to save me, and my stopping here would make that sacrifice worthless? It was one of those moments when I would have given almost anything not to be a princess.
