Chapter 96

The princess clung to him, shaking with cold and fear. Despite the danger of the storm, Darius stood there, holding her. Hugging her. Basking in the fact she was safe.

Then he held her out at arm's length and yelled, "Why the fuck did you leave the room?"

She blinked wet lashes at him. "There was a voice in my head."

"You should have ignored it."

She stiffened, suddenly indignant. "I didn't know it wasn't mine until I was already outside."

"Do you know how close you came to dying?" His heart still hadn't recovered. It was only because he'd gone to do his rounds during the storm that he'd caught sight of a figure moving up those stairs. At first, he'd been annoyed, thinking the stupid woman was running away. Then there was an angry relief because if she left, then he could sail away without guilt.
