To Love a King (Court of Annwyn)
“He’d made it to the gate, and just being back in Annwyn was making him feel better. The wound on his hand had almost stopped bleeding. His back hurt, and if he stood still too long, the world started spinning and tilting as if determined to throw him off. He needed to rest. But first he needed to let Sulia’s supporters see that he was fine and that she didn’t have the control or wit that he had. Even though at the moment he barely felt in control of putting one foot in front of the other. He made his way to the hall, where people would be eating and gambling and dancing.
As a shadow servant went past, he helped himself to a goblet of wine and a piece of cake. Both would go a long way to helping Annwyn heal his damaged body and slowing the effect of the iron. If he’d remained in the mortal world, the iron would have had greater and faster effect. Here, he could feel the ebb of strength and the increase of pain, the burning blistering his back and slipping into his blood.
