Waterfire Saga, Book Four: Sea Spell: Deep Blue Novel, A - Plot & Excerpts
It was less than a week, but it seemed like an eternity. Five days of enduring Lucia’s smile, her touch, her kisses. Of listening to the boring gossip and cruel jokes of her friends. Five days of dancing attendance on Portia. Of listening to Vallerio’s plans to raid more villages, enslave more citizens. Of hauling Black Fin sympathizers out of their hiding places while on patrol. Five days of enduring Traho’s suspicious glances. Of trying to keep up the pretense of being loyal to a pack of murderers. He was with them now, some of the very mer he despised. He, Lucia, and their court were swimming through the palace gardens. Some courtiers were talking about the wedding, others about the party he was going to throw the night before. Lucia was bragging about wedding presents they’d received. Hang on, he told himself. Smile and nod. You’ve done it for months; you can do it for a few more days. His escape had been planned weeks ago. Currensea and clothing, as well as the location of his first safe house, had been hidden in a sunken yacht east of the city.
