Chapitre 76: Aftermath (1)

I was in my palace before I could process everything. Sverre didn't comment about the state of Theo and probably my lingering scent on him as he gave the crow shifter some trousers under my order. Afterwards, we went to my study, where I slumped over at the desk and stared at nothing in particular. My thoughts swirled with the events that had happened.

Was Faidon okay? I didn't see the extent of his injuries, but he hadn't been moving. I clutch at the heated gem still in my pocket, the one Kharis gave me, and roll it around between my thumb and finger. The motion soothes me, but only a little.

If I wasn't thinking about Faidon, then my thoughts jumped to Eryx. He was an Alpha Prince, and that being tossed him aside so easily. The sound of bones breaking as he slammed into a tree made me shiver.
