Prince of Love (10 page)
Katrina moved aside as Lucian and Elric walked to Sorin, each taking one of his arms and draping it over their necks as they helped him to the carriage that was waiting to take them to the castle. She turned and saw the castle atop the mountain with bright blue skies dotted with puffy clouds. The road beneath them was made of the most unusual, beautiful blue stone that seemed to capture the color of the sky in its depths.
The white buildings and homes on either side of the road were each decorated with knot work similar to what was tattooed on her arm. It was then she noticed the people of Drahcir lining the road waiting for their first look at her. Their welcoming cheers and waves helped to ease her.
A grating sound behind them drew her attention and she turned to watch the giant iron gate close on its own.
It was truly a magical kingdom.
“What do you think?” Sorin asked.
She grinned up at him. “I think it’s magnificent.”
“Can you be happy here?”
“I’ll be happy anywhere you are.”
He squeezed her shoulder and sighed. It wasn’t until that moment that she realized he had been worried.
“I love you, Sorin Sinclair.”
He stopped and looked down at her. “And I love you, Katrina Sinclair.”
Epilogue
Sorin watched Katrina talk to his mother and two sisters-in-law. It had been a relief to know both Elric and Lucian had returned, but they all worried about Keiran. More so now than ever since it was just a few weeks until the fifth moon of the harvest year.
“Everything rests on Keiran’s shoulders,” Elric said as he moved to stand beside Sorin.
“Aye, but if anyone can get to the gates, it’s Keiran.”
Elric and Sorin exchanged a grin. “True enough,” Elric admitted. “It’s good to have you home, little brother.”
“It’s good to be home.” He shifted his shoulders and felt the pull of the stitches in his side.
Elric chuckled. “I know your new wife will be taking excellent care of you. Just lock your door.”
“Why?”
“Mother hasna quite gotten used to us having brides yet.”
Sorin threw back his head and laughed. “Did she walk in on you and Marin?”
“Nay. She walked in on Lucian and Isabelle. It took a few days for Isabelle to be able to look her in the eye again.”
“Thanks for the warning,” Sorin said. “I’ll be sure to do that.”
Their smiles died as a guard came running into the palace.
“What is it?” King Urises demanded.
“It’s the Tnarg, sire. He’s sitting outside the gates.”
Lucian sighed as he moved to join them. “He’s waiting for Keiran.”
“No’ if I can help it,” Sorin said.
“You can no’,” Elric ground out.
Sorin’s gaze moved to Katrina’s. “I’ll find a way. I refuse to let my brother die.”
He turned to his brothers. “That beast has tracked us all over the country. It has attacked our mates and tried to kill us. I know what the curse says, but I’m no’ just going to sit back and watch it kill
Keiran.”
Elric and Lucian exchanged a glance.
“I agree with him,” Elric said.
Lucian blew out a breath. “What do you suggest?”
“We use some magic of our own,” Sorin said with a grin as he took Katrina’s hand.
Elric rubbed his hands together. “I’ve got the perfect plan then. Curse or no, I agree with Sorin. I’m no’ going to let the Tnarg prevent Keiran from returning home.”
Sorin glanced at Lucian before he turned to Elric. “Let’s get prepared then. Keiran can return any time now.”
And they all needed to be ready to kill the Tnarg. An entire kingdom’s life rested on their shoulders. For too long the Sinclairs had lived with the curse. It was time to do something about that, and Sorin knew that time was now.
They just had to wait for Keiran.
