Chapter 41: Wolfe

"Warlord, Miss Skye is waiting for you in your chambers."

Kingston bows his head toward me as I pass him in the hall. I grunt my acknowledgement and continue on my way, but his voice stops me.

"Sir... I'm not sure it's my place to say anything..." He hesitates, his tone uncomfortable.

I raise a brow and turn to look at him. It's not like Kingston to be so tentative. He's one of our top warriors and I've been pleased by his service to my woman. Whatever he's trying to say must be about Skye. She's about the only person that can disconcert a man like Kingston.

"Either spit it out or let me get on with it. I'm tired, dirty and eager to see my woman."

He clears his throat and says, "I am completely loyal to Skye. She's a good person, in her heart and in her actions. As such, I will be her devoted servant until she no longer needs my service."
