"What is it, Hunter?" Alaric asked, his arm still protectively around Azaria. I took a deep breath, gathering my thoughts.
"I stayed behind at the ball after you both left. I noticed two men, and they stood out to me. They were claiming to be princes of the genie sultanate." Azaria's eyes widened, and she exchanged a glance with Alaric.
