The Empress Day 587 A.F.
Castle Lethe
I watched the drive long after there was no sign of Jack, the love of my life.
I watched until my tears had frozen on my cheeks. I tightened the
tourniquet around my heart once more, knowing that one day it would
break, and I would bleed out in the snow.
Or worse.

But if he could sacrifice for Tee, the nickname he’d given my unborn
son, so could I. Stemming my tears, I turned back toward the castle.
My soul mate, the father of my baby, awaited me there. I had a
relationship to repair, alliances to rebuild, and a home to defend.

As I reached the front door, he whispered —Do you trust me?— Had his
tone held a tinge of menace?
