"Woo," Amelia tried to stabilize the wild horse when she came across a pile of dead bodies belonging to more guards from the Blackwell castle. Seeing their dead bodies made her more upset her father had sent her to be live bait to trap the northerners.
"Why did he send so few men? He's cockier than I thought," Amelia scoffed, not seeing how her father thought this would turn out to be in his favor. It didn't take long for Killian's men to get rid of the trap her father laid out. "They set me up to become bait for this. Even worse, King Killian would have to go through that village to get here. Those villagers could be hurt."
"Ugh," Cyrus groaned since the ride on the horse was not a smooth one. Amelia had never ridden on a horse like this so she wasn't able to manage it well.
