Fianni stared out the window, eyes following a golden figure streaking across the darkening violet sky. It seemed like every other night Liam was out there, alone. She’d asked around and learned that there was a grotto outside the castle, for him alone.

Tonight, something stirred in her. She’d promised not to leave the grounds alone, but she was tired of hiding away. Days passed by and she did nothing. She spent less time with the men than seemed reasonable.

Liam needed someone, and she wanted to be that someone. Grabbing a shawl, she headed from her room and down to the gateway. By now she’d learned the layout of the castle, and she made her way to the courtyard exit within minutes.

“Fianni,” the guard said, greeting her. He stared down at her, six-foot-something inches of muscle and intimidation.

She smiled into the glowing green eyes of the guard and flipped through her memory. “Craig… alone tonight?”

“Klara is making a quick round.” His eyes narrowed on the darkness falling. “Of course, that used to be code for a bathroom break. Now, not so much.”

Fianni didn’t know what to say. The day before, Rask had revealed that many of the clans were gathering forces. They were preparing to fight, not just file complaints.

She glanced at the closed gate. “I was hoping to take a walk.”

“That’s not advised.”

“But is it allowed?” she asked innocently. Please don’t let Liam have actually told them I can’t leave.

Craig looked her over. “I can’t forbid you from leaving. But I strongly encourage you to take your walk within the walls.”

“I’ve been within the walls since I arrived.”

“Then why wait until night to start adventuring out?”

She sighed.

“What’s going on,” a gruff feminine voice called.

Fianni gave a small wave as Klara appeared out of the shadows.

“She’s wanting to take a walk outside,” Craig said.

Klara balanced her weight on one leg and looked between the two of them. Her blue eyes weren’t discernible in the dark, but during the day they were like pools of tropical sea water. She was one of Fianni’s favorites because she was as tall as most of the men and often joked about it. Resting a hand on her waist, she asked, “Then why’s the gate still closed?”

“His Majesty requested—”

“His Majesty asked us to treat Lady Fianni with all respect given to royal ambassadors. Which to my understanding means if she wants to leave the castle, we allow her to.”

“It’s dangerous,” he insisted.

“She’s a goddess. Got magic and whatnot, right?” she asked Fianni. “Older than dirt, on top that.”

“Well… not a goddess, but yes. Magic and… whatnot,” Fianni replied. She wasn’t touching the ‘older than dirt’ comment, which was something that she may have said herself, but sounded entirely different coming from someone else.

Craig muttered something under his breath and turned to unlock the reinforced steel gate.

“Thank you,” Fianni gushed.

“Don’t mention it,” Craig murmured.

“Follow the path, left on the fork, straight through the clearing even though the path disappears, then follow the sound of water,” Klara said peering at the sky.
