The false prince book 15/11/2023 If I hadn’t turned when I did, the cleaver would’ve found its target.īut I was only a block from Mrs. Even though he was aiming for me, I couldn’t help but admire his throwing accuracy. I rounded a corner just as the cleaver suddenly cut into a wood post behind me. It was this sort of thought that encouraged me to run faster. Undoubtedly a country where killing a meat thief was allowed. He was originally from one of the far western countries. He yelled very loudly in his native language, one I didn’t recognize. He was only a few paces behind now, chasing me at a better speed than I’d have expected for a man of his girth. If the butcher didn’t catch me with his cleaver first, and literally cut off my future plans, I vowed to remember to get the meat wrapped next time. It happens to be very difficult to hold a chunk of raw meat while running. I’d never attempted roast thievery before, and I was already regretting it. These were my thoughts as I raced away from the market, with a stolen roast tucked under my arm. Then again, I’m not sure I ever had a choice. If I had to do it all over again, I would not have chosen this life.
