The Mud Monster

Emily was standing behind that tree was the trunk. 

Emily didn't know how she can act. It was true that she heard Oliver say that she left the scene of the fight with the mobsters.

  Except Emily preferred to stay close to Oliver. Inside she couldn't believe Oliver could beat these guys.

They were gangsters. He was a country boy.

They were strong and their bodies were huge and solid like a hammer. He was soft and handsome and his body was like me for being a lover and not a warrior.

They were immoral. 

He had manners.

No person of moral character can win over people without morality.

All those things made Oliver's winning idea for Emily almost impossible.

Poor, handsome Oliver.

That was also why she's willing to apply everything she was learned about fighting in the palace. You apply it here and now too.

No one could know or see what's about to happen.

I had these idiots.
