Chapter Six

Isabelle walked briskly behind Amalthea. They hadn’t spoken about her choice of Zorin for king. By the stiffness of the queen’s spine and the thin line of her lips, Isabelle doubted she would have chosen him for the king. But Isabelle was confused. Didn’t Amalthea want them married? Didn’t she want her son as the king? Isabelle sighed irritably and kept walking. Really, it was the only way to get what she wanted. Finally. Zorin had promised to leave her alone and out of all but the most major decisions regarding Feeorin. She could live in the country, in her own manor. Away from everyone. She could spend time with Caden. She could go for walks in the woods. She could have a cup of tea and sit lazily by the fire if she wanted to without Andrew barking at her. Or anyone else for that matter.

That Zorin would be her husband was only a minor concern. She had lived with Faolan for over a year and had learned to love him. That would never happen with Zorin. She was sure of it. But at least they could be civil to each other and Caden adored him as only a child his age could. And that would be enough for her. It would have to be.

Isabelle looked over Zorin’s stoic expression with a frown. He had told her little about the meetings and she had never before been allowed to attend them. But she couldn’t imagine what would cause the heavy darkness in his eyes or the grim, fierce line of his mouth. She hoped that he would catch her watching him and give some explanation since she could hardly ask him what was bothering him at the moment. But he refused to look at her. She grumbled under her breath which got her a sharp look from Amalthea. Isabelle fought the urge to stick her tongue out at the much older woman and settled for a sheepish smile again.

This is hard for her.

Zorin? She mentally shot to him, her eyes going wide. She looked to him, but he continued to look away. She mentally sighed as she decided to play his game. So why is this hard for her?

You’ll see.

Finally he caught her eyes, giving her an enigmatic smile that only made her frustration mount. His eyes even seemed to be laughing at her as the subtle hints of color she knew were there began to dance.

Amalthea stopped short in front of her, causing Isabelle to skid to a halt behind her. Zorin meanwhile stopped with military precision as if he had meant to stop there all along. His gaze turned watchful and wary as Amalthea turned to her.

“Now, for today I want you only to observe this meeting. Everyone will be introduced by Zorin. He is the mediator and is the only being that you will see able to act with force. If you should feel threatened in any way you let him know. You know how to mind speak correct?”

Isabelle gave her a quick nod.
