Weyr Life Drabbles: Prompt word #89: "She"
Staring into those amber eyes, Lessa supresses a surge of annoyance. This man's confidence in her has never wavered, not once. An extension of his own arrogance, or the deepest compliment?
Both, she decides. And how can she fail to respond to that?
Reluctantly, she realises she's fallen in love. and she hates him for that, too. After a lifetime of hiding and mistrust, struggling to keep control of her life, love's far too disarming for her liking.
Oh, she loves him... but she doesn't have to make things easy for him.
He'll find out when she's ready, not before.
