Chapter 24
Apollo
Apollo wasnât a murdererâhe didnât kill unless it was absolutely necessary.
But he was tempted to take his sword and run it through Joffâs stomach.
There was no one else in the tent with them, and on a day like this, it would be easy to dispose of the body by simply leaving it in the Cursed Forest. Accidents always happened during the Hunt.
But Apollo needed answers, not more bloodshed. He leveled a cool look at the soldier. âWhere is my wife?â
âSheâs with Lord Belleflower, Your Highness.â
âWhy on earth would you leave her with him?â
âShe told me to, Your Highness. Princess Evangeline wasnât sure where your camp was, so she had Hale and I split up.â
âYour job is to stay by her side,â Apollo interrupted. âRegardless of what she wants.â
âI know, Your Highness.â Joff bowed his head. âIâm sorry I failed.â
âGet out,â Apollo said, âbefore I run you through with my sword.â
âThereâs just one more thing, Your Highness.â A bead of sweat dripped down Joffâs brow. âThe princess asked me to tell you not to join the Hunt until she found you.â
âDid she say why?â
Joff shook his head. âNo, but she seemed very determined.â
âSheâs always determined.â
âYour Highness!â cried a breathless, high-pitched voice as a small child burst into the tent.
âStop, runt!â screamed a guard, but the child was quick.
âThe princess, sheâs in trouble!â said the child. âI just saw a man trying to murder her. Now sheâs run into the Cursed Forest!â
