White Hart (2014)
“I check that her ropes are tight, sit her down by the fire, and roast root vegetables.
The girl watches my every movement. My stomach churns when I think of the people she belongs to—the same ones that killed my father?
When the food is cooked, I divide it up between the prince and me. He sits and watches our prisoner, hardly ever moving his eyes from her. For a brief moment I wonder if he is attracted to her, but then I brush that thought aside, first because it’s stupid, and second because no...t long ago I had to stop him from slapping her in the face.
“You’re not feeding me, then?” she says with a sneer on her face.
Cas and I stay silent, eating our portions. The girl struggles against her ropes for a moment and then goes still.
“I know what you’re doing,” she says. “You think if you starve me that I’ll talk. Well I won’t.” Her voice has the slightest hint of a tremor, and I flash Cas a look to say that she will crack soon enough.MoreLess
