84. Him
Him. Why did it always seem to come back to him?
His heart, his kingdom, his war, even his crusade all seemed to come back to that one man. Him.
Philip didn’t much approve of complaining or whining or not taking responsibility for one’s actions, but Richard made him want to curse God, or even the gods if that meant Richard would be cursed. Every once and a while he thought he was over it, over him, only to have all his hopes and dreams dashed so cruelly the next time he saw him.
It didn’t look like it end.
