Let her go
It’s been months since Tommy left Libby at the Lee camp, he rarely saw her but the rest go there nearly everyday to see there niece and every time it breaks Libby’s heart not seeing her father with them.
taking her coat from the rack and throwing it on about to walk out the door she was stopped by her nephews voice “ where are you going” turning to him “I’m going to see that little girl you do t see at all” she spat.
”actually pol from now on no one will be seeing her i already spoke with John and Arthur this business is getting to dangerous and all of ye heading off to the Lee camp I’m worried you might be followed” Tommy told her making sure he was making his point.
”so we just never see her again is that it then” anger was all that was in Polly’s voice.
” to keep her safe yes, tonight I will go there and tell her myself, our enemies are building one after the other I won’t have my daughter found” the pair stood staring at each other until Polly stomped out of the house.
once night fall came Tommy took his house to the Lee camp where he found Libby by the fire.
”dad” she spoke once she saw him her little feet running to him and his arms picking her up where he sat them both by the fire.
”can I come home now” her little voice was heard in his ears “ not yet love there is still work to be done” he told her
“ dad what do you do” thinking for a moment on how to explain it to her. “ I do bad things Lib but for the right reasons me and your uncle’s protect our home from anyone who try's to take it, people try to take my crown and my kingdom so they can become king and it’s my job to make sure that doesn’t happen” he explained it in the only way he felt her little mind who understands.
”being king is hard isn’t it daddy” he laughed at her words.
” more then I care to admit love, bad people would do anything to take it including going after there weakness and that’s you lib your my weekness and I can’t let anything happen to you my little princess I need to keep you hidden so no one can harm you do you understand” hoping in his mind she would.
” it’s like soldiers trying to save the princess from the dragon only in our case the soldiers are bad and the dragon is good, your that dragon daddy keeping me safe” she yawned in his arms.
“ yea something like that” he spoke. Soon Libby fell asleep in her fathers arms not knowing when she woke he would be gone.
