CHAPTER Fifty-One

  (Sin)

  Furious, I headed back to the throne room, Merula was supervising the fixing of the gate and Amaya was probably with Abigail. I hated to leave them alone in the castle, but I needed to talk to Magnus about what we had discovered, unless I brought them with me. Amaya can talk to dragons, so she wouldn’t be in danger.

  I looked around the room and motioned for a guard to come forward.

  “Yes, sire?” he asked, looking at the ground.

  “I want you to go to the stables, I want my nightmare saddled and ready to go as well as two well ridden and tame nightmares for my guest.”

  “Sire, wouldn’t a nightmare hurt your guests?”

  “Do it.”

  “Yes, sire.” He bowed and hurried from the throne room. I headed over to Merula.

  “Merula, I will be leaving the castle for a bit, keep an eye on things for me.”

  “Yes sire,” He bowed.

  I turned and made my way to Abigail’s quarters.
