Oath of Betrayal (The Broken Bonds: Slavic Fantasy #1)

T he view before me went unnoticed as I stood on the granite walls of the fortress. The harsh mountain wind tugged at my dress, wrapping it tight around my legs. I wish I’d gone to see Vahin the moment I woke up instead of listening to Orm and staying in bed.

That damn man had used my recovery to fly to the mines without me. I knew why he’d done it, but being away from my Anchor felt wrong . Besides, I had proved I could help with the Vel when I had dispatched that swarm of spectrae.

Why couldn’t he have waited for a few more hours?

He’d need to explain himself because I didn’t intend to let this go. Especially since, in his absence, I wasn’t sure what I should do. I’d spent the last few days aimlessly wandering around, with occasional visits to the town with Alaric as my only company.
