Chapter 25
Dagen
Dagen watchedBree from across the room. She really was the most striking fae in the entire ball. He watched her whirl, eyes wide and cheeks pink. And he wanted nothing more than to go to her in that moment. The crowd was beginning to surge, and shouts erupted all around the Great Hall. The fae were getting angry, though he wasn’t surprised. Many of them had lovedMidas.
“We need to go now, Dagen, while everyone is distracted,” Ethne said, whispering into his ear as he took one slow step toward Bree. If he didn’t do something to help her, she could get trampled in thecrowd.
And some of the fae down below were beginning to notice her presence. Now that they were no longer distracted by the song and dance, their eyes were being drawn to her beautifulframe.
“Bree looks like she might be in trouble,” hesaid.
“No time, Dagen.” Ethne squeezed his shoulder. “She will be fine. Look, Taveon’s little lapdog is heading straight for her. He will get her out of heresafely.”
Indeed, Dagen now spotted the silver-haired fae through the crowd. His eyes were locked on Bree. He was charging through the chaos with a fierce determination reflected across his face. Dagen gave a nod. He trusted the shapeshifter to look after her. After all, he had stood by her side during Taveon’s unwise decision to punish her. And he’d carried her away after the attack, making sure shehealed.
He wished he could go to her himself, but he couldn’t. He had made a promise this night, one he could not break.
