"It's good to see you, Ghost," I said respectfully.
"It is good to see you as well, Aric. As soon as I received your message, I came. Tell me, what have you learned?" he instructed firmly, and I began to tell him what had come to pass since I'd entered Valgertha's gates.
I filled him in on everything, from the way I'd broken into the castle, to the growing pair bond between Freya and me, and eventually to the attack against her and who the culprit turned out to be.
I couldn't see the Ghost's entire expression, but I could see the lines around his eyes tighten with tension when I mentioned the name of the king who had gone after Freya.
