Title: Riding Rating: PG Word Count: 226 Pairing: Kalasin/Wyldon Fight: 1/C Summary: Kalasin and Wyldon both love to ride. A series where Wyldon and Kalasin struggle with the idea of duty.
Wyldon still continues to see the tiny, dark haired princess. After a few weeks, her eyes loose the stormy look, and her shoulders relax. Sometimes when Wyldon sees her now, she’s smiling, or laughing with her younger brothers.
And the more and more he deals with nobles and council meetings and petulant pages, the more and more he becomes impressed with the princess who gave up her dream for her people.
In autumn, Wyldon finds her in the stables when he goes to look at the horses, brushing her horse. “Make sure you cover the flank,” he advises, peering over the railing. “Dirt gets really imbedded there.”
Kalasin wipes a piece of hair and looks up at him, grinning. “Thanks, sir.”
“Stephan tells me you treat him well.”
“Now that I’m not going to be a knight-” A flash crosses her face at those words, but Kalasin composes herself quickly. “Well, I spend more time on politics and finances and the like, so I’m prepared for my marriage. I still like to ride though, and it’s not an entirely useless skill.”
“Do you ride often?”
“Usually in the morning, sir, before my studies.”
“We should go together sometime,” Wyldon says, quickly worrying that his words somehow might be disrespectful.
But his fear melts away as Kalasin’s face lights up in a grin. “I’d love to, sir.”

I like that he worries about propriety. So very Wyldon.
