"Maiven, can I talk to you? It won't take long" Tamlin said walking towards her

"I guess" the girls answered unsure. Her only hope was that the conversation wouldn't end up in angry shouts or death glares

"I want to give this to you," He said, extending his arm in front of him.

In his hand there it was. Her knife. Maiven was a little shocked to say the least. For all the time that she had asked him for it he never, not even once, replied with a maybe or I'll think about it. Mai reached forward, taking the knife. Her grip on it was strong once it was back in her hand. The human girl looked up staring at the High Lord in front of her with furrowed eyebrows

"Why?" She asked

"It's a thank you for what you did yesterday night."

Maiven nodded in thanks before the High Fae turned around and walked away.

The assassin twirled the knife in her hand. A small smile formed on her face.

The sound of steps alerted her but the girl never took her eyes off her hands. Maiven soon recognized those steps. Steps that belonged to the red-haired Fae

"Why is this knife so important?" He asked once behind the human

"Good morning to you too, Lucien" Mai said with amusement

"Yes, yes. Good morning Maiven. Now what makes this knife so important that you care for it so deeply?" He asked once again with curiosity that gleamed in his eyes

"Someone gifted it to me" The Archeron girl simply replied. It wasn't lie but still she concealed the majority of the story behind it

"Someone perhaps that you care for?" Before Mai could answer he continued "We talked about Feyre's love life back in the mortal lands but you never said anything about yours. So tell me. Is the person that gifted you this knife mayhaps a boyfriend? A lover?"
