Summary
“I sent you to Lys to grow out of the arrogant boy you were,” Maekar said, his voice cold enough to still the room, “and instead you return having let some lowborn mount you like a mare, with a bastard in your arms, as though whoring yourself had not been humiliation enough.”
His gaze lowered briefly to the child, the contempt in it barely concealed.
Duncan froze where he stood, something in his chest tightening at the way the prince spoke, the disdain directed not only at Aerion but at the small boy who stood beside him. Before he had fully thought it through, the hedge knight stepped forward and placed himself between them.
“He is not a bastard, Your Grace,” Duncan said, his voice steadier than he felt. “He has Prince Aerion's dragon blood, and that is enough.”
When Duncan is sent to Lys to bring Aerion back to Summerhall four years after his exile, he does not expect to find the once-arrogant prince working in a brothel to fend for a bastard child who looks oddly familiar. Prince Maekar does not take the news kindly.
