Shasta was in shock. She didn’t know whether to be angry, or amused, or horrified. Talon, a woman? It seemed ludicrous, but her guardian had never lied to her before. Except that now it seemed Talon had been lying all along, and Shasta didn’t know what to think. Her romantic fantasies, the beautiful wedding and perfect twin children and glorious reign, seemed like a cruel joke now.

Lyris had said her brother wasn’t like other men. Shasta realized that in her own way, the Pledged had been trying to warn her, and Shasta hadn’t been listening. She was too wrapped up in her own idiotic daydreams, believing that nothing Talon ever did would hurt her. How very wrong she had been. She felt like her guardian had just plunged a knife into her heart, and the betrayal hurt more than anything else. She’d thought they were friends. More than that…how many times had she told Talon that he was like a brother to her? Only it turned out that Talon wasn’t a “he” at all.

Her guardian coughed again, and Shasta found herself caught in a swirl of emotions. Fury and shock were not quite able to overwhelm her genuine worry over Talon’s wound. She’d run away from the castle like a child throwing a tantrum, and if Talon hadn’t come after her she might have faced a terrible fate at the hands of those outlaws. Talon had saved her, possibly at the cost of his life. Her life, Shasta corrected herself bitterly.

Shasta made up her mind to concentrate on one thing at a time. First, she would make sure Talon received treatment for her wound. Then I’ll decide whether or not to have the lying bastard executed for treason. The thought was ridiculous, as Talon had only been following her father’s orders, but in her infuriated state it still gave her some perverse comfort to consider it.
