The Saviour "ON HOLD"

Protectors♡

•Kenna's point of view•

That afternoon Conde asked me to walk his wolves with him. The snow was almost gone, the ground wasn't as white as before, soon the spring would be here. We walked alongside each other. "How's your shoulder?" I asked him.

"Good, it healed up really fast actually. I could take down...Mountain If I wanted to." He looked at me with a confidence.

We burst into laughter, "Right. Of course."

He suddenly became serious and stopped walking, "Kenna, didn't you want to go back. isn't that what you always wanted?" He paused a little, "You were so upset when you first came here...I know what it's like to be away from your family." 

I sighed, "Of course I want to go back... Diane. she's the only one who knows how."

"Oh, I'm sorry. Now I regret bringing it up. You hate me now." He noticed I was down and was trying to cheer me up.

I chuckled, "No silly, I enjoy talking to you." 

He fixed his hair, "Everyone does."

I shook my head as we continued our walk. Suddenly I heard Mary from behind. We turn around and see her. 

"You guys are really fast! and Hello Conde." She said trying to catch her breath.

Conde smiled at her, "Hello Mary." He looked at us both for a minute, "I will leave you ladies alone, talk later Kenna." with that he left me and Mary.

Me and Mary walked for a while but I could tell there was something on her mind. 

"Hey you've been really quiet, is everything alright?" 

After a while of silence, she finally spoke up, "Kenna...I don't think you're that safe in this palace, you shouldn't be by yourself that much."

I looked at her in complete confusion. "Mary I have no clue what you're talking about? did something happened?" 

She touched my shoulder gently, "Listen I'm saying because I care about you a lot not just as a friend anymore but as a sister. Just be with someone at all time, either with the girls or the boys."

I knew something was wrong but she would keep dragging it and not telling me which made me worried more. 

"ugh, my horrible memory! Narcisse told me there is a going to be a dance going on in the hall later today! I will go get ready and will see you there alright?" She smiled and walked away, "Don't forget what I told you, please be careful!" 

I shook my head, she's crazy and worries about me too much. 

I changed in my chambers then walked up to Catia and Lysa's room but they weren't there so I decided to walk to the hall by myself. I could hear the music from outside, I slowly walked inside.    People were indeed dancing in the middle. 

They were dancing so beautifully. I was almost jealous and wish I could dance like that.

"Would you do me an honor and dance with me my lady?" I turned around and saw Sebastian bowing behind me.

I raise an eyebrow with a smirk, "Uh no thanks I'm good." I jokingly walked away but he caught my arm and took me to the middle. 

"Sebastian I don't know how to dance like them... I'm just going to embarrass myself." I chuckled but he didn't care.

"Don't worry I will teach you how to dance. You know next week there is going to be a huge dance and I want you to learn." He put his arm around my waist and pulled me closer to him.

He put one of my arms around his neck and taught me how to swing. He taught me each step with patience and I would be lying if I said I wasn't having fun. 

"Your smile tells me you're enjoying the dance with your protector! What can I say, ladies love my dance moves." 

"You sounded just like Julien right now, and my protector? is that what I'm calling you from now on?" I pinched his cheek playfully.

"It's my responsibility to keep you safe, I'm like your guardian angel. I even got the looks of one." He shrugged.

"That confidence of yours, Jesus bash." I chuckled again. "And since when it's your job to protect me?" I stopped dancing for a second, "What's going on? first Mary and now you?"

He gave me an awkward smile showing his teeth scratching his head.

"Sebastian???" I raised an eyebrow and crossed my arms. He was so bad at hiding, whatever it was.

"Come on Kenna. I told you I will protect you no matter what, so you don't have to worry your pretty little face." He pulled me back on the dance floor again.
