The Alpha's Chosen Mate
"You have my favour, dear Knight, now I really must depart these dreadful woods before bandits see the opportunity to maraud us."
"I would slay a thousand infidel bandits to protect you and your honour, milady," Knight squeezes my hand once more, before releasing me and climbing back in his car. "Au revoir."
I chuckle at his attempt to be chivalrous. He almost embodies his name of a noble knight, ones that I love reading about in historical fiction stories. He is a good friend, and I am glad to have him in my life.
I walk into the trees, and then disappear off the path, following my internal compass that is set to home.
