"Lord Phelan's estate was attacked last night," Erick blurted as Jael stepped aside to hear what he had to say.
Jael's eyes widened, and several emotions passed across his face, but before he asked further questions, Jael pulled Erick further away. Vampires's ears were quite sensitive. It wasn't that he wanted to hide the information, but he didn't want it to distract from what was currently going on.
"What?" he yelled when he was satisfied with the distance between them and the vampires on the field. "Are you sure?"
Erick nodded. He knew how important and serious the issue with Palers was. His father's estate had also been attacked, he wouldn't make a joke about this. "Yes, Sire. Lord Phelan sent a letter. The messenger didn't stay. As soon as he gave the letter to the guard to give it to the Primus, he was gone. I didn't even get to see him before he left."
