"What's the matter, afraid he can't handle it?" Fabian glanced
at him. He wasn't as restless as his friend. Leaning against the
trunk of the tree, he folded his arms in front of him.
Demetrius shook his head. "It isn't that," he said, pulling his
sword out of the dirt. "He's headstrong. Not to mention,
overconfident." He swung the blade a few more times. "It's an
unfavorable combination," he added.
"Does that remind you of anyone?" Fabian teased.
"I'll admit I was arrogant at times, but I could always smell
defeat. I was never quite as impulsive." Demetrius smiled
sheepishly. He hadn't forgotten the times Fabian had rescued him
before he met his demise. "Nicholas, well, he thinks he's
invincible." He grew serious. "And Ayden's too trusting. He isn't
perceptive of debauchery as his brothers. Then there's Lucian." He
paused and laughed with subservient pride. "How righteous he is.
But at times, he's impetuous, yet blameless. Especially, when he
believes it's unjust. He surprises you."
"They've matured since I last saw them," Fabian said with an
affable chuckle. "They'll be all right, Demetrius."
The duke gave a feeble smile as he returned his steel to the
scabbard. It was exhausting, being a sentry at his age, but he had
to continue for the sake of his sons.
