“Altair!”

“Do not use that name here,” said the whisperer. “I forbid it.”

“You were watched.”

“When?”

“Whoever it was you sent to put pressure on Kimlesh’s Court. They were seen negotiating. Tate followed them.”

“It doesn’t matter.”

“Of course it matters. How could you be so careless?”

“Do not think that because you share my secrets that you can speak to me so. When you chose to throw your lot in with mine, we sealed a bargain, but I am the Lord of the Seventh Court, and you… you are my servant.”

“I am not your servant.”

“Your loyalty is to none other, not any more. Remember that.”

“We did strike a bargain, and I’ve seen precious little in the way of a return.”

“They have taken the bait,” he whispered.

There was a pause. “What? You’re sure?”

“Of course. I would not say if it were not so.”

“Then it could be soon?”

“The solstice. There will be a window of opportunity,” said the whisper.

“And then you will deliver on your side of our bargain?”

There was only silence.
