Cassia plans on using Kali's truth-detecting abilities to find out if one of Torr's companions is an assassin sent to kill her.   *** Kali shifted under her, letting her know that riders approached. Torr and his companions were being escorted by a Karahan cavalry guard to their location. Torr rode slightly in front of his men. She stared at both Alan and Hanley.

Including, the continued threat of Vespera and lots of people telling her what to do.

Maconahay, her personal guard, and Cassia are discussing the need for more bodyguards besides him. *** “Too many and not enough.” “You’ll need to pick one eventually, guarding me seven days a week during all waking hours is going to burn you out.” She turned and walked toward the family quarters up several more flights of stairs.   “The decision can’t be rushed,” Maconahay said quietly.   She bit back a smile before looking over her shoulder. “I trust you, Captain, I know you’ll pick the correct people.” ...

Including, the continued threat of Vespera and lots of people telling her what to do. Picking up from last week's snippet, Cassia is talking to her adviser Donaly about offering Prince Torr of Vespera and his companions sanctuary.  *** “You’re sure of what Torr told you?” She shrugged.

For those of you who read Horse Charmer , Cassia is now the official queen of Karah and is stuck with all the duties and problems that come with the job.
