~No One's POV~

(Y/N) (L/N) is known to be one of the greatest knights who has fought countless wars. She has been assigned the knight at the age of 15. She was loyal to Kenna Rys even after King Luther took over her mother's throne. She helped Kenna lead numerous knights into battle and fought alongside her in every war. Kenna and (Y/N) were like sisters to one another despite their rankings. Even when Kenna returned to her rightful place on the throne, she always made time to be with (Y/N) and almost never let her leave her side. It was as if (Y/N) was her own personal bodyguard which (Y/N) didn't mind.

Kenna decided to rule alone, not wanting to marry anyone in fear that they might distract her from taking care of her people. Of course, Dominic was upset but respected her wishes. (Y/N) didn't hate the boy but didn't like him either. (Y/N) would spend her time with the maids, chefs, and other workers of the castle whenever she wasn't with Kenna. She liked spending time with them since they always gossiped about things around the castle and in town. One of the servants, Trystan, told her that Dominic would sleep with his sister and various women in town. (Y/N) didn't believe him but it was something about Dominic that made her not like him. 

"(Y/N)?" Kenna asked. The two were walking down the hall of the castle, on their way to the throne room. "Yea?" The knight replied. "Who do you like?" Kenna asked. The knight freezes up as her cheeks turn slightly pink. "Why are you asking?" (Y/N) asked. "Well, there are two people that come over very often and I always catch you staring at them whenever we're talking. But you look at them differently than you do with anyone else. Not only that but you get flustered whenever they praise you." Kenna explained. (Y/N) rubbed the back of her neck embarrassed at how easy Kenna could read her. "So, which one of them do you like?" Kenna pressed on.

"I'm not so sure Kenna. I think I like them both... It could be just me being selfish but I can't stand the thought of one of them marrying another." (Y/N) sighed, shaking her head. "You better decide quickly. They're both into you and if you don't choose one, they're going to start fighting with one another." Kenna said. The knight groaned and shook her head, "I can't just choose one of them! I don't want to hurt any of them." 

Kenna places a hand on her friend's armored shoulder. "You have to. Better to hurt them now than later." She said. The knight stared back in silence before nodding in agreement. "Annelyse will be coming over soon to talk with me. You should hang out with Val." Kenna chuckles, nudging (Y/N) with her shoulder.

(Y/N) blushes slightly before shoving Kenna playfully. "Whatever dork," she replied. The two headed in different directions once their conversation ended. (Y/N) went to the training field to see rookie knights trying to hold their swords correctly. (Y/N) almost found it sad at how bad they were. It was as if a newborn baby deer was trying to stand up. She turns her head to spot Val lecturing some of the rookies. 

"Are you joking me right now?! I've seen babies being deadlier than that! Swing again!" Val shouted. The younger knights shake in fear before nodding rapidly and picking up their swords. As they swung their swords, their swords barely even brushed before ending up on the ground again. Val grunts in frustration before pinching the bridge of her nose, trying to hold back the urge of grabbing one of the swords and start swinging at all of them.

(Y/N) took this as a sign to go over and walked towards Val then hugged her from behind. "Getting frustrated again?" (Y/N) chuckled. Val sighed as the tension in her body relaxes against the other woman. "Yea. But doing better now." Val replied. 

"Take a five-minute break you two." (Y/N) told the two knights, which were glad to finally take a break. She took Val's hand and led her somewhere that was quiet. "Finally, away from those idiots," Val complained and sat down on the grassy area. (Y/N) sat beside her, leaning against Val's shoulder. Val wraps an arm around her waist and rests her head on top of hers. "Glad you stop by. I would have sliced off these idiots' heads if you came a second late." Val joked. (Y/N) nudged her gently and chuckles softly, "You wouldn't dare. Kenna would have made you apologize and play nice with them if you did." Val shivers at the thought of her being nice to them, "Anything but that."
