FF- SNOW HUNTER
Prologue
"I have known men like you all my life," she said. The ground, where she was sitting, was cold. She shivered.
"No, you haven't." and Arnav's face hardened as he looked up to face her.
"Isn't it true that you would do anything for money?"
"Anything that my conscience allows." He said, casually, and went back to adjusting the wooden sticks to light a fire.
"Oh, so your conscience allows you to kill me." It was a statement, rather than a question.
Arnav was taken aback and stared at her but remained quiet. He had never met someone like her. She was staring at her death without a flinch, without a treble of fear in her voice.
"You don't have to lie to me. I know the queen has sent you to kill me." Khushi said, looking straight in to his eyes, trying to read him.
"Has anyone told you that you talk too much?"Arnav said, smirking, unwilling to give anything away.
"Yes, but that's beside the point. Let's talk about you. Who are you?"
"A huntsman."
"A huntsman hired to kill me?" she asked again.
Arnav was losing his temper. He looked at her fiercely.
"Yes, your highness. I am going to kill you." he said, his voice menacing.
"What are you waiting for then? Go ahead and kill me." challenged Khushi.
Arnav pounced at her, his knife at her throat. She fell back on the ground, as he loomed over her.
"Maybe I should." he said, roughly.
Her innocent face was marked by surprise, her eyes widened in shock and her rose-petal lips trembled as she looked into his eyes. He took in her delicate features, lit up in fire-light, and she held his gaze for the longest moment, as if by magic.
