A Court Of Wings And Ruin

Chapter 5

Rhys

I growled upset as I didn't get to say what I've been holding in for weeks, I raked my fingers through my hair and down my face. I felt the anger waging through me like a war and I got up sharply swiping at the desk flipping it over completely "Dammit!"

I huffed in rage as it he desk splintered into pieces and I heard a knock on the room door. It opened before I answered "Rhys" I heard Mor call.

Mor. My cousin. And also my emissary. She had light blond hair and her night court gown on. An astonished look on her face which was also filled with shock was plastered on her features "I felt it." She started "I know I did".

Rhys knew what she meant and shook his head before plopping down on the chair that was now without a desk "The bond is still wavering and it needs time to replenish. I can't keep the connection long or the use of it will be noticed on her side."

Mor growled her claws curling upwards slowly "My high lady is in that monstrosities home! Why aren't we doing anything about this?!"

Rhys sighed and felt a burning in his eye's "the wards have been placed beyond the spring court and the forests are watched by King Hybern's men." He stated and Mor froze.

"If we did try. They'd attack our court before we ever reached Feyre".

Mor shook in both anger and disbelief "s-so what do we do?" Rhys would have taken the time to start teasing Mor since this may have been the first time she had ever stuttered but, he only shook his head.

"We Need to get into the spring court without suspicion or unwanted attention. It needs to be before next week" he stated getting up from his chair.

Mor looked confused "why next week?"

Rhys growled his wings dragging across the ground now flaring out slowly "Calanmai is starting next week".

Or gasped before shaking her head "n-no he'll take her by force. Her mating bond could be fractured!"

Rhys nodded before he turned back to mor and took her by the shoulders looking her straight into the eye "Tamlin hasn't seen you. I need you to get into the spring court" Mor nodded quickly with a hasty "Of course!"

"Before, Calanmai starts. Tamlin can't see the woman he will possibly mate until his part of the ceremony is complete. So, before he begins his powers will be at its weakest until, he converts" he said his voice cracking on 'mate'.

Mor nodded quickly "I can do that. I'll be able to winnow us out quick enough to be able to get to the court barriers".

Rhys nodded "gather Azriel and Castien. Amren is still decoding and is probably already in the meeting room" he stated slipping into the closet pulling off his ruffled shirt.

Mor nodded serieus for once as she smiled at him "Don't worry Rhys" she said and he looked up at her as he adjusted his ties " we are all gonna bring our high lady home" she said softly before exiting his room.

Rhys sighed slipping on a neater dark colored shirt. He glanced at the tattoos on his arm he smiled lightly when He Remebered Feyre running her fingers across his scars and marks after they made love.

Rhys chuckled lightly before slipping on his cloak and heading tho the door. He spotted a shiny piece of silver and jewels.

He walked over finding it on the wall. He plucked it from the plaster and studied it before his eyes began burning once more "Feyre" he whispered brokenly.

"I-i love you too" he whispered.

He then got up quickly and out the door "hey!" He called and saw Mor poke her head through the side of the hallway "what?!"

"Get someone to get me a new desk!"
