“Hey ho, Your Majesty.”

I smelled the woman before I saw her, the thick cloud of fruit-scented perfume that so many of the working girls in Turino had begun wearing after Vali had become our queen. I wouldn’t be the one to tell any of them their efforts were in vain; Vali’s natural perfume was as unique and beautiful as she was, and no other woman could compare. No one else could tempt me. And since I couldn’t be with her tonight, since it was my brother’s big nest-building extravaganza, I would just drink some more whiskey and ignore the woman with the bad perfume.

Except I couldn’t. She had her hand on my thigh, heading as fast as a rat toward my cock. I jerked away, regretting the last few drinks that had slowed my reflexes and allowed her to get close enough to slide a hand between my legs. But the other patrons had insisted on buying me drinks, and my guards had promised they would get me back to the castle unharmed.

Where were my guards? Blake had gone to take a piss, and then Valor had nipped out to check on him… then I didn’t remember seeing them again. There were four more outside, but something was wrong.

“I’ve always wanted to try an Alpha. Fancy a ride?” The whore put her fingers back on my thigh, her yellowed teeth peeking through red-stained lips in a wide smile, brassy red hair piled on top of a face that showed a hard life lived.

That didn’t matter. I would still cut off that hand if she didn’t remove it. “Hands off, woman! I’m a mated man.” The men around me, who had been drinking along with me for hours now, guffawed at my predicament.

She pulled back, her face flushing as red as her hair. “Well, yeah, Your Majesty. We all know that. It’s not like you can’t get your pecker wet elsewhere, though, is it? A bit of fun on the side.”

“I’m a faithful mate,” I gritted out, motioning to the barkeep for water. I’d had too much to drink if whores thought I was easy pickings. “You should go.”

She sneered, hefting her tits up as if to show me what I was missing. “It’s not like the queen is faithful to you.” She sniffed. “Fucks every single one of your generals on the regular, I hear.”

The bar went silent, as if the whole place had been plunged into the deepest ocean. My hand was already on the hilt of my sword when I felt a small hand cover mine. “Don’t kill her, Your Majesty. She’s just a stupid cow.” A street urchin, a cutpurse by the looks of her, stared up into my face with a stern expression. “Ya ought not to be drunk right now. There’s men after you and your lady.”

“What?” I picked her up by the back of her collar like a kitten and peered into her scrunched up face. “What do you mean?”

“I’m one of Vilkurn’s,” she breathed as quietly as she could.
