Ezekiel
There were not many things that left me defenceless in my life. No gun or weapon had ever made me stop to think before I did something. Nothing made me feel hopeless and lost. It was a feeling I was not used to. As the King's guard you could never feel defenceless, helpless or scared.
You always had to be on top of your game no matter what.
Then Ezra with his honey-green eyes cast me one glance. That one glance that showed absolute trust and faith in me. He was the only person who looked at me like that. As if I was something more than the man who stood in front of him. As if I was all he saw and it made my stomach twist in shame knowing I had a secret that could destroy us.
