The ambassador knew the princess.

In fact, he knew her well enough to embrace her and kiss her cheeks, over and over, protocol be damned, before she'd even been introduced to the queen.

Gabe suppressed an urge to growl. What in the nine hells was happening to him? Now he was feeling possessive, too?

It was ridiculous.

"Princess," the ambassador said gravely. "I am so pleased to see that you are alive and well—" He hesitated and fidgeted with his ceremonial silver-and-green robes, refusing to meet her eyes.

Gabriel tensed for the hammer he suspected was about to fall.

"Ambassador. You will disclose the news you are so hesitant to speak. Now." For the first time, Gabe saw the Princess with a capital P in Erielle. Not the warrior, not the vulnerable woman—the royal who demanded obedience.

It turned him on.

He was in big trouble.

The king and his gorgeous wife, Queen Riley, who had a smile like the sun rising over the horizon, both looked concerned.

"Is there a problem, Ambassador?" The queen held out a hand to Erielle, smiling. "Please, Princess, have a seat. From what little we know of what you went through, I am amazed that you are able to stand upright. I'd be locked in a room with nothing but pillows, bubble bath, and all the food and chocolate in the world, if I'd been trapped in a demon dimension."

Her obvious kindness and sincerity must have touched something in Erielle, who smiled back at the queen.

"Your Highness—"

"Oh, please, call me Riley, Princess. We're not formal here."

Erielle blinked, obviously not used to such casualness from royalty. "Ah, yes. Riley. I, please call me Erielle."

But then she turned back to the Ambassador, who'd turned a greenish shade of pale. "Tell me. Now."

He cleared his throat, but he knew when he was beaten. "Your brother, Princess. Prince Ferrian. Shortly after you disappeared, he—"

She took two steps forward and grabbed him by the shoulders. "He what?"

"He was taken, Princess. He … your uncle. Zaran na' Zoratan. He took the prince, and we've seen nothing of either of them, since."

She cried out and fell back and away from the ambassador, but Gabe didn't hear what the princess said to that, or what anybody else said, either, because he couldn't hear anything over the roaring in his head. Before anyone could move to stop him, he raced across the room and lifted the ambassador into the air by the throat.

"Say that again. Now."

Denal and Conlan were there in a flash, trying to yank him away from the ambassador, but Gabe's rage lent him the strength to resist them.

"Tell. Me. Now," he shouted in the man's face.

"Princess Erielle's uncle, Zaran na' Zoratan. He, he, took her brother, Prince Ferrian," the man gasped, just before the king of Atlantis pulled back one arm and punched Gabriel in the head.

The next thing he knew, he was on his back on the floor, staring up at the king, the queen, Denal, and Princess Erielle. The ambassador was off making choking noises on the side of the room.
