When Eugan spoke of holding a banquet in my honour, I'd thought it would take a matter of days before I was expected to present myself to the people of Leif. The hectic atmosphere I'd woken up to barely a day after his invitation, made it apparent that he was unwilling to wait that long.
Wrenyth was a hive of activities that led me to think Eugan's demand on his people was utterly insane. However, the joyful chatter among both maids and courtiers made me realize that they were willingly enganging in these activities, even though they were commanded by their king. Which should not have come as a surprise after the thunderous welcome which had been lavished on me when I entered Leif's gates. The people's love for their king had easily trickled to me, his mate.
All the love, the eagerness
