An excerpt from The Dragon Thief (Riftling, CH 6):
âEnjoying the swim?â A silvery voice came. Lanna ducked her body under the water so only her head poked above, although she knew the pond was so pristine and clear that it would hardly serve her any cover. Nox came out of the trees and stood, arms crossed, with a small smile on his lips.
âDid you follow me?â Lanna scoffed.
Nox walked over to her clothes and began inspecting them as they dried.
âI came to let you know we were ready to move on. The Kingâs Road is just a bit ahead. Alderyth reckons we can be out of this forest and in a nice, cosy Riftling inn by sundown.â Nox then glanced to Lanna. âAlthough, it looks like youâre already all cosy here. Perhaps I shouldnât disturb you.â
Lannaâs cheeks flared red in anger.
âOf course you shouldnât. You shouldnât even be here while a lady bathes!â
âA lady?â Nox laughed. âI see no lady.â Then, he began to remove his shoes. Lanna took a step into deeper water.
âWhat are you doing?â
âI changed my mind. Maybe I will disturb you.â
He started to remove all the layers of his robes. A white tunic and white pants peeked beneath. He began taking off his tunic, and even though Lanna was furious at his practical joke, she couldnât help but not look away. Beneath his shirt was a slim but toned frame. She was surprised to see such defined muscles in his stomach and chest. When Nox began to remove his pants, Lanna found herself too embarrassed to continue watching. Plus, she didnât want to give him the satisfaction thinking she was enjoying this. Because she really wasnât, rightâŠ? Â
