Chapter 13: Welcome Home, Niece
Nobody in the gallery moved, and the only sound was Wynne breathing in her sleep.
Out in the corridor Torin's voice stopped in the middle of a curse.
Then boots came fast, and he was in the doorway with a guard hanging off each arm.
He had heard.
His brown eyes went to me, and he asked nothing at all.
"Come in, Warden," Aldous said, pleasant as a host. "You should hear this, since you married it."
The guards let go of Torin the moment my uncle lifted one ringed finger.
They had been afraid of him from the start.
Torin walked to the foot of the bed and stood beside Hadrian, not looking at him.
"Five years," Aldous said, and he coughed into his cloth.
"Five years I hunted a drowned queen."
"And she walked into my hall with a satchel and cured my cough."
"Your cough is not cured," I said.
"No. But you made me comfortable enough to think."
