Chapter 15: Mark Me Back
Lysander waited by the cold hearth of the great hall with his hat in his hands.
He had put on a clean coat.
Rina walked in with her hair still wet from the spring, wearing the green dress without the corset.
Kaldrith stayed behind her at the door because she had asked him to.
"Lady Rina," said the Crown Prince.
It was the first time he had used the name.
"Your Highness."
"I have been thinking about what the Saint read."
His green eyes went to her face and stayed there.
"A man who is dying to keep a promise is no safe husband."
"Whatever he is to you, he cannot promise you a spring."
"I know."
"Then come with me."
"Now, today."
"I will take you to the cathedral sanctuary, where no one may touch you."
"I will stand between you and my father's court until the Rite is over."
"Until the Rite."
"After it, he will be dead, or he will have burned the city." Lysander's voice was rough. "I cannot let you stand next to that."
Behind her, she felt Kaldrith not move.
She had seen it before, that stillness, the way he held himself in rooms where he was the monster.
She let it be, and she walked forward until she was an arm's length from the Crown Prince.
"Thank you," she said. "I mean it. It is a good offer and you meant it kindly."
"Then accept it."
"No."
He opened his mouth.
"I have to be in the cathedral at the Rite," Rina said.
"It's the only place the promise can be taken back, and I'm the only one who can do it."
