READ THE EPIC FINALE HERE!
The silence in the hut was so thick you could cut it with the rusty knife Beatriz used to cut the bandages. Julián Santillán, the Duke of El Cuervo, the man whose mere mention made even the bravest men lower their heads, was there, vulnerable, his face pale and his breathing ragged. His men, elite soldiers clad in leather and iron, surrounded the small adobe hut, transforming a widow’s refuge into a military fortress in a matter of seconds.
Beatriz took a step back, shielding Cecilia, Mariana, and little Sofía with her body. They clung to her skirts, their eyes wide with fear. She knew who he was. She knew the Santilláns didn’t ask for favors; they took what they wanted. And now, she held the life of the sovereign of the northern lands in her hands.”My lord…” whispered the captain of the guard, kneeling before the makeshift cot. “We have brought the estate doctor. Allow us to take him back.”Julian opened his eyes. They were gray, icy, like the steel of a sword tempered in ice. But when he looked at Beatriz, something in his gaze softened for a fraction of a second. It wasn’t ordinary gratitude; it was the recognition of one warrior for another. He had felt how that woman’s hands dug through the cold mud, how her fingers bled as she freed him from the weight of his horse, and how her firm voice had kept him anchored to life during the fever of the early morning.
