Thread: Can the darkest of hearts love? :: Pretty/Relix

Iza looked up at the sky more often as the sun began to set, his body propped up against an empty cart near the town's entrance. His comrades had already made it in, finding him with a big smirk across his face. Of course, the common question followed Whats gotten into you? Iza never smiled so a smirk was completely out of the ordinary. The male quickly followed with where he wanted to steal from next. The three grinned and wanted to hear more. What they found out was an old jewel shop had just hit a big shipment of jewels for a very important wedding. The woman who's to be wed, her proposer sent many special, rare jewels to persuade her into becoming his wife. Iza. Why you keep looking up to the sky man? Looking for something? Zeke asked as he tossed a pebble at Nim, pointing to Nam, his brother, as the one who threw it. Quickly starting a tussle in between the two brothers. Its personal. Complicated. Iza replied, standing up slowly. Removing the sack of coins from his belt, Picked this out earlier, go get a room. The male spoke as the bag landed in front of the three. If you say so, Iza.. Zeke murmured in reply. Traveling through the back alley around the buildings, Iza eased through the kingdom like he knew where everything changed. Feeling a small boy run into his legs, Iza looked down slowly. Sowwie Mister. The boy spoke after a chuckle, Come here, Isha. A female called, Leave that man alone and come in for your bath. The boy replying with yes mommy before waving good bye to Iza. Replaced. Such a shame. That boy was his brother, the mother was his. A sigh escaped the lips of the male, the female hearing it from the distance like she recognized it. Um, sorry to ask.. but, do I know you from somewhere? She called, No, I'm just passing through. Good day, ma'am. Iza spoke, bowing softly before turning around to go straight down the alley instead of taking a left. Even after all these years, the male was able to recognize his own mom. Must just be because she birthed him and she'd be forever implanted in his brain. Shaking his head softly, You have no family now. Iza murmured to himself, looking up to the sky. It was approaching the time that he told his love to show up at the guard tower. Approaching the guard tower would be easy, just getting inside would be the challenge. The male would have to knock out the guards who were posted in the tower without causing too much of a disturbance. Not much one could do but ring a bell.. which would draw more to that area. Though, the problem would be making it that the guards were still visible. Each had a light projecting their shadows along the walls. Iza pressed his shoulder against the door, pushing against it slowly. Popping the lock out of the hinge, breaking it unfortunately. Damnit.. the male whispered to himself, he didn't need someone to be suspicious of how it broke. Groaning lightly to himself, the male pushed the door open slowly attempting to not creak it. Creak . Thats going to pose a problem. Go check that out, that door should be locked. A husky voice chimed in from up the stairs that rounded the inside wall. Iza shot up the stairs quickly, meeting the guard as he approached the top step. Swiftly punching the guard in the unprotected stomach, the male gasped for air before Iza dropped his elbow on the back of his head. Knocking him out for a good handful of hours. One down, one to go. Creeping up the last few steps after placing the other guard face down on the stairs, Iza peered out to see where he was. Hey, new guy. Get your ass in here already. Don't play fucking games with me, I'll kick your ass. I see your shadow on the wall. The male growing angered at Iza's shadow. And with that small bit of anger, it led to the male being unconscious. Shrugging softly, Easy.. not to position them upright. Dragging the most recent guard who was knocked out back outside, he propped him down on the chair. Well, atleast they have somewhere to sleep it off. The male spoke, chuckling to himself as he headed to get the other guard. Dragging the body slightly up the stairs, this one wasn't as heavy as the other but heavy padding didn't help much either. Grunting softly, the male lifted the guard from the ground, dragging the limp body to the opposite chair. Night duty. Had to suck, atleast they didn't need to worry about it this night. Slowly heading down the stairs, the male listened intently attempting to hear any rustling indicating that the female approached. He figured she'd be trying really hard to not make noise that some noise would be made. Hearing the brush rustle against a cloak, the male stood up from the step. Watching a feminine figure approach, back to the door. Seemingly that she was looking for him to be around the building instead of inside, sliding the door open some. The male slipped out, running his hand over her mouth before pulling her inside. Sh. Iza spoke quietly, moving back to the door after pulling her in. Pushing it to a close quietly, the metal boots of the sentries walking past just as he assumed. Shaking his head, You realize you could been caught? the male questioned softly as he turned around, moving his hands around to find the female. The light that shone in from above barely illuminated the bottom of the tower, if anything just made it darker. Feeling his gloved right hand touch a surface, the male ran his hand down and around some. Attempting to figure out what exactly he was touching, well, how embarrassed he shall be when it comes out. He was touching a soft, round portion of her body.. and he was definitely sure it was somewhere where he wasn't supposed to be touching. Pushing his hand to the right some, the male found the side of her torso which answered his question. Touching her chest, smooth move. I apologize.. Meredith. The male spoke softly, apologizing for what he had just did. How else was he supposed to feel.. he just felt up the love from his childhood. He wouldn't be surprised to feel a smack go straight across his face within a second or two.
