Insatiable
This is #3 of the Haunted Book Series by esteemed novelist, Paige Turner.
Sasha finds that Arden's ghost has been growing more and more hostile. The only thing that seems to calm his rage is Sasha's touch.
However, with Arden's growing rage, and Sasha growing more and more exhausted keeping up with it, she seeks out Drav for comfort. Unfortunately, Drav is too busy with his duties as prince. One evening, she finds Arden draining the life of her father. She uses a spiritbane charm to drive him away. Realizing that the spectre of rage is all that is left of her once great love, she resolves to contact the Spirit Wardens to free his tormented ghost.
When the Wardens arive, two of the three are immediately dispatched by Arden's vengeful ghost. The remaining Spirit Warden Warden is wounded in the struggle, recieving a slash across his chest and tearing his coat and shirt from his body. He is able, however, to wrestle Arden into a spirit bottle using his lightning hook.
Sasha immediately tends to his wounds. As she reaches for his mask, he grasps her hand to stop her. They gazed into each other's eyes before the sound of a snapped twig reveals Drav watching the tender moment from a nearby doorframe. The Spirit Warden leaves, and so does Drav.
Sasha returns to her quarters where she finds a note written on Spirit Warden stationary. It extols her beauty, grace, and strength of character and will, and asks her to the theater as a show of gratitude. With her spirits uplifted, she leaves to visit her father, who she finds has fallen ill since Arden's attack.
