only Maeve will be left standing in the end,
Lady of All.”
Maeve’s shadows rose in a wave. “I have
had enough of this, Aelin Galathynius.”
Aelin knew Maeve would go on ahead,
without Erawan. Work without him, if need
be.
The dark king looked toward Maeve and
seemed to realize it, too.
Maeve’s black hair flowed around her.
“Where is the King of Adarlan? We would
have words with him.” Simmering, vicious
rage pulsed from the queen.
Aelin shrugged. “Off fighting somewhere.
Likely not bothering to think about you.” She
inclined her head. “A valiant effort, Maeve, to
try to divert the conversation.” She turned to
Erawan. “The healers are waiting for you in
there. You’ll see I’m telling the truth. Though
I suppose it will be too late by then.”
