¨Poppy wake up.¨ I whispered to my elven princess who was tucked by my side, her small hand, fisting my shirt and using my arm as a pillow. ¨Poppy...My Alfirin¨ I shook her slightly, making her blink her violet eyes open. ¨Mask yourself at once.¨ I whispered in her ear making her blink her eyes changing back to the usual emerald green human color and her scent dissipating in the night air. We were halfway into our trip and we hadn't been able to get a car, so we had to walk and run the entire time.
It was hard for her to keep on masking herself even when she was sleeping as a young elven, she was still mastering her magic and we had been on the run for little less than a month now. She was exhausted and we could only move a certain amount each day until she needed to rest.
