Sean had long waited for his chance to avenge his friends from Oakwoodâ when the time finally came, it was with several unlikely High Lady Minerva Queensblood, who felt her family owed Sean for helping her son, Commander Queensblood. Advisor Mackenzie Earthfoot, who had to walk a thin line to not favor Sean too much, lest she earn the Queensâ ire. With his friends and allies, Sean time and again thwarted Lord Truestrike and his minions. He even befriended his daughter, Dame Trisha Truestrike, giving her hope that she might one day see Darragh again. It was when Sean brought down the Greater Vampire, Luka, that High Lady Queensblood pushed for the duel Sean had long sought. During the duel, Truestrikeâs treachery was revealed when he summoned a Life Bonded dragon to kill Sean. Sean almost died a few times, but even a dragon bowed before him at the end. Ironically, it wasnât Sean who finally killed Lord Truestrike. No, it was Trisha, who slew her father to avenge her lover, Darragh. With Lord Truestrikeâs death, Trisha was destined to take over the Truestrike House and have her son returned to her from her fatherâs grasp. That ended in tragedy, as the spoiled brat struck her down for âstealing his birthright.â His reign only lasted as long as it took the guard to remove his head from his shoulders. But more bad news was waitingâ the scribes had sent messages to the Queens. Both Winter and Summer were coming, and Sean wouldnât be able to avoid them. That put him on the clock to pull off what the stories had said he would find the Huntsman. To manage that, heâd need to figure out how to open a portal back to Earth. If he did, Sean would likely find an old enemy waiting for him; Thor hadnât forgotten the slights against his name, and he wanted revenge. Time was ticking away, and Sean had to work fast. His wives, especially Fiona, were counting on him. Sean had never backed down from a challenge, and he wasnât about to start now. Heâd either figure out how to create a portal, or heâd end up facing the Queens on less than diplomatic terms.
