Her protectors stepped aside.

He stood easily nine feet tall, with crystal blue eyes and black hair pulled back in a braid. He was

twice as broad as Chase and wore a white linen tunic edged with gold and diamonds. He looked both

ancient and young. More ancient than Theo. He wore a stern expression as he looked out across the
