Chapter 29: The Crown Moon Hall
The moon came up full in the high windows while he was still smiling.
The eldest lord of the Council stood. He was white-haired and stooped, with a voice like a creaking door.
"By the Crown Moon Law," he read, "a royal heir unmated at her twenty-third birthday..."
"Is married to the Council's choice," Varrick said. "We know the law, my lord. Get on with it."
"The law has another line," I said.
I stood up in Roan's coat.
Then I opened the collar and turned my head, left, then right, so the whole high table could see.
Two marks. One on each side, where the neck meets the shoulder.
The hall broke like glass.
The Council lords leaned over the table.
Varrick's face didn't change at all.
"Bites," he said. "From some stable. A trick by a spoiled girl."
The eldest lord came down from the table, slowly, on his stick.
He looked at my neck. He breathed in once.
Then Lysander pulled his collar open, and Roan did the same.
My mark was on each of them.
