Kassandra's POV
I swing my spear and behead two enemies. My husband and I lean on each other's backs, then switch sides. I don't want to use my secret power because Silver was here.
It's not the time yet. I secretly look at him and see how he acts so perfectly. He's easy to read.
"Just die," I whispered.
I used the handle of my spear and hit his crotch and slit his neck. He falls on the ground right away.
He wraps his hand around my waist and turns me around, then his sword and the enemy's clashed. I can't touch the ground.
Kalix still had the strength to carry me. I pierced my spear into his body and kicked him using both of my legs.
"Wrap your legs around me and keep an eye behind me," he says.
I can feel the worry in his voice, but there's more. It's tainted with guilt and fear at the same time… I grab his sword and give him my spear.
