AETHLYN’S head jerked up when he saw the upstart thrall dash into the

inn and up the stairs. He thought his eyes must be deceiving him. Surely he couldn’t be in Londinium. He would’ve heard rumors if a thane and his entourage had arrived. Not to mention the boy would have no reason to come here alone.

He was about to follow him up the stairs to investigate when the boy reappeared carrying several packs, and a wicked smile crossed the battleseveral packs, and a wicked smile crossed the battlelord’s face. A runaway. He didn’t know what had possessed the fool boy to try to run, but it didn’t matter. This was his chance to get his position back.

He started following him through the town, staying back at first, but closing the distance when it appeared the boy was paying no attention to the activity around him. Even more foolish. What did Aethlyn care about

Roman law? If he brought the runaway home, then his place was assured. No one need ever know where the thrall had been found. He watched from a small distance as the boy ducked into a shop, and when he didn’t reappear after a while, he asked a couple of questions regarding the owner. He could hardly contain his pleasure. A woman, the boy was staying with a woman. That was both amusing, considering how he’d spent his time at Wulfgar’s, and convenient. A woman couldn’t stop him.

His hand came up to touch the side of his neck. The mark was long gone, but he still felt it. This boy and his whore had cost him his livelihood. A slow smirk curved his mouth. It was only fair they help get it back.

ARON set his packs down and turned to face Cate, frowning at the look on her face. “What is it?” Cate sighed, gesturing for him to sit. He did, unsure what she was going to say, but from the look of her, it wasn’t good, and his heart began to pound. She took a deep breath and met his gaze. “I’m sorry, it was nagging me earlier, but I didn’t remember until after you had left. Aron, there’s no easy way to tell you, so I’m simply going to say it. Marcus’s father cannot help you rescue him. He died not long after Marcus was taken. I’m sorry.”

Aron’s newfound energy drained from him. Well, that answered a few questions. His heart grieved for his darkling, who didn’t even know his father was gone. He was determined, though, that Roman’s hope wasn’t going to die as well.

Aron closed his eyes against the new wave of helplessness. “Tell me he at least searched for him,” he whispered, opening his eyes again to catch Cate’s nod.

“Aye, up until the moment he fell sick. It was over with rather quickly.”

Aron sighed in relief. That, at least, was something he could use to help shield his darkling from this new blow. Without Roman saying so, Aron knew how much the silence from his father ate at him.
