Lily's POV
Few months had passed after my fifteenth birthday and things were still pretty much the same. I got better practicing the art of the sword with William and I could fight him fairly well in a duel
My lessons were more advanced..... And more boring if you ask me. Mom was well..... Mom. Still as secretive as ever
It was my rest day and mom was going to town, leaving just me and William. We trained for sometime before resting
"You know, I wish I could go out there, just once" I said
"Yeah, but you can't. At least not now" he replied
"But why?"
"Because it's not safe out there" he replied
"Which is why you should go with me!"
"What?!" He exclaimed
"Yeah, you guys made it pretty clear that I'm not safe out there. But if you go with me, You'd be able to protect me from whatever
"dangers" are out there, right?!" I persisted
"This is a bad idea Lily, and you know your mom would never..."
"She doesn't have to know! We'll be back real quick! I just wanna see what's out there. Pleeasse" I pleaded and he sighed
"Fine, one hour there and we're back! But you need a wig and a hoodie" he said
"Why? I'm proud of my hair colour....."
"Do it, or forget about leaving" he said
"Fine" I complied and he got me a blonde wig which I wore on my long strawberry blonde hair
"Okay, we're ready. Stick close to me at all times, and remember. Only one hour!" He said
"Yeah! Thank you William!!" I squealed
"I already regret this" he muttered
We got on his horse and started heading out of the forest. I felt like I was on cloud nine!! After fifteen years. I was finally getting to see the outside world!
