Haldor took one look at the sky and decided he’d have to stop for the day. A storm was brewing and he wanted to get back to the palace before it hit. Selena would be expecting him and he didn’t want to disappoint her.

She didn’t know that he’d been back from his trip for several days. He hadn’t been home yet, though. Instead, he’d been spending every waking minute working on her surprise. Missing her desperately but so excited to see the look on her face that he drove himself hard, working late night after night, sleeping on the stone floor.

Kylar and the others had left hours ago. He didn’t know how he would have done all this without them. He took one last look around then headed outside, hitched up the wagon, and called Loki, his wolfhound. The huge beast bounded out of the woods and leaped into the back of the wagon.

Haldor never ventured into the woods without Loki by his side. Gadolinian wolfhounds kept every other creature at bay. Not even a hungry snow leopard would dare attack him when faced with Loki’s snarling fangs.

By the time he reached the palace, the storm had reached full fury, wreaking its vengeance on the city. He drove through deserted streets with the wind howling around every corner. Houses were shuttered up tight, slivers of light leaking out to hint at the comfort and warmth inside.

He unhitched the wagon and stabled his horse, settled Loki with a plate of scraps from the kitchen then headed to the great hall, only to find it empty.

He stopped a serving wench on her way to the second floor. “Where is everyone?”

She looked surprised to see him. “My lord, they’re gone. The men have all headed into the woods. Toward your house.”

“My house? Why?”

The girl babbled so fast, he could barely follow. “Miss Selena. They’ve gone looking for her. Prince Kylar is furious. He shut Princess Talia in her room, threatened to spank her good when he gets back. She’s worried sick, crying so hard I’m afraid she’ll make herself ill. It’s not good for the baby.”

Haldor wanted to shake the young girl, but he restrained himself. Tried to keep his voice calm. “Why are they looking for Miss Selena? And why is Kylar angry?”

The young servant wrinkled her brow and began speaking to him as though he was slow-witted. “I told you, my lord. Miss Selena is gone. She told Princess Talia she was going back to your house. Said she wanted to surprise you when you came home. Prince Kylar and the other warriors were out hunting all day. When they arrived here, the storm had just hit.

“The prince was angry with his wife for not stopping Selena, but the princess had been inside all day. She had no idea the weather had turned bad. They’re all out looking for her. She was on foot, and his highness didn’t think she could have made it all the way back to your house before the storm caught her.
