“You will find another bride, Aron. But I’m afraid it can’t be me.” Anger lit his gaze and he spun to face Prince Magnus. “It’s very important for a bride to be pure on her wedding night. Is this not so?” Cleo’s cheeks began to flame. “Aron!” He gestured wildly at her. “Cleo already gave her chastity to me. We’ve shared flesh. She is not pure!”

Her breath caught. “You have unclear memories of a sorceress who lived and breathed a thousand years ago. How old are you?” “I already told you, princess. Old.” “Yes, but exactly how old?” He hesitated, but only briefly. “Two thousand years.” She stared at him in shock. “You’re not old. You’re an ancient relic.” He raised an eyebrow, a smile tugging again at his lips. “And you are sixteen mortal years. A mere child.” “I’m not a child!” “You are.”

“The prophecy is that there would one day be a mortal king who would rule over this kingdom.” She brushed her hand against the map of Mytica again. “One who would discover a great magic that would turn him into an immortal god. That he would rule his kingdom with a goddess as his queen. And that they would in turn rule everything, this world and all that lies beyond, and everyone, be they mortal or immortal, would bow before them. It is you, my king. And I shall be your queen.”

Magnus actually snorted at this. “Don’t worry. I haven’t heaped any indignities upon your fair princess today. Then again, it is quite early.”

With unexpected speed, he took hold of her head with both hands and twisted sharply. The girl’s neck broke with a loud crack. She crumpled to the ground, her wide eyes now blank and glazed and absent of life.

“We’re trying,” Alexius growled. Although, in truth, he had ceased searching for the crystals when a princess with sky-blue eyes and jet-black hair had captured his full attention.

“I would never celebrate death, no matter whose it is,” she said, her gaze filled with anger and something else. Something that looked vaguely like sympathy.

“I wasn’t supposed to feel anything for you,” he whispered, drawing her closer. She couldn’t look away from him. “When I watched you from afar, I had that distance. That objectivity. I lack that now.”

Magnus gave her a look. “Oh, not at all. Since helping to take her father’s kingdom and destroy her life, I couldn’t help but fall madly in love with her. Yes, obviously it was arranged.”

A marble pillar had dislodged from the broken roof and was falling. The king was directly in its path. But before he was crushed, Magnus launched himself toward the king and knocked him out of the way. The heavy pillar crashed, shattering into hundreds of pieces on the still shaking ground.

“Something wrong, princess?” Magnus asked. “It’s just . . . Nic.” Her heart pounded. “He’s here.” “Yes, he is.” “You’re not surprised?” “No. I requested it.” She turned to stare at him with shock and suspicion. “Why?” He shrugged. “Your misery has been palpable for days, and it reflects poorly on me. For some reason, you value the presence of this fool. So here he is for the rest of the tour until I can finally get back to the castle and head out on a journey that really matters to me. He can handle our luggage and clean up after the horses. I’m sure I’ll find many interesting uses for him.”

But confusion still clouded her thoughts and not only about the boy’s claims. Magnus had acted instinctively at the sight of the dagger. He hadn’t shoved her to be cruel. He’d done it to . . . protect her.

Magnus took a tight hold of her arm and turned her around. Before she could say another word, he put his hand behind her neck, drew her closer to him, and kissed her.

Magnus leaned closer so he could whisper in her ear, his breath hot against her already flushed skin. “Don’t worry, princess. It was the first and last.”
