Another chapter! Hope you enjoy! Any reviews, good or bad are welcome! I know it's a bit fast paced, but you'll have to bear with me. I do not own any ToG characters or plot.

"Am I the only one here without a ring on my finger now?!" Aedion complains over a glamorous dessert of puddings, muffins and the king of desserts: raspberry cheese cake.

"You're not alone, fellow single," Lyssandra chants.

"Right," Aedion answers plainly.

Just then, a sudden, loud BOOM interrupts the dinner.

"What was that?..." Chaol asks as the boom sounds again.

Dorian grins in response. "That, was the sound of wyverns flying this way."

Everyone rushes to the towering window at the end of the room. A single wyvern was flying this way. It's silver wing's booming with strength. A figure with blowing, silver hair and a red cloack was mounted atop the massive, flying creature.

"It's Manon!" Dorian exclaim.

"And by the looks of it, she isn't happy," Lyssandra states.

"She always looks that way," Dorian wipes of Lyssandra's statement.

Sure enough, moments later, a guard came rushing in with Manon in tow.

Manon barely nods at Aelin and stalks right towards Dorian. "Dorian Havilliard. You forgot to pick up Earena! Her library school called asking why no one was coming for her! You are in BIG trouble mister! BIG TROUBLE!"

"You were right," Dorian whispers to Lyssandra. Lyssandra just smirked. Dorian wasn't scared of anything but his wife.

Aedion's gaze settled on Manon's hand. "Where's your wedding ring, Manon?" Aedion blurts.

"Manon..." Dorian starts as his gaze whips to Manon's hand, where, the ring was indeed missing.
