章 180: Vincent and the Fire

 Delaney stood for a moment, staring after Mason and Ilona as they rode away through the storm. Lightning split the sky, so loud and bright that it shook the house, bringing her out of her thoughts and back to the present. She needed to know about something much more important to her than Mason's leaving.

 She turned to Ian who was still next to her and grabbed his arm.

 "Where is Vincent?" she asked him seriously, "Where is my husband?"

 "He's alright," Ian answered quickly, "Mason gave him a quick explanation for what was going on and he agreed to stay and keep Daniel and Sophia distracted while I rode away with the Prince. When we left he was helping pour buckets of water on the flames."
