It had been over a year since Frost had last seen Siana. Really saw her. Not ducking past her bake shop downtown just to glimpse her or seeing her vibrant halo of springy, blue curls at a restaurant that he suddenly wanted to vacate like hellhounds were chomping at his ass.
Fae magic hummed in the air as globes of trailing red light stretched before them, illuminating a path along the road and guiding them to their new route.
Even fighting with Sin gave him life, something missing from the last year when his heart had frozen into a cold lump that felt nothing.
five foot ten, Frost was barely taller than her five-foot-seven stature, and his slender, fit body, which was certainly strong due to his bear’s strength, was way smaller than hers. If anything, he’d often borrowed her shirts and sweats after long nights of barhopping at university before he passed out on her couch.
His bear would hunt through the snow, across the ice, through frigid ball-shrinking, nerve-numbing oceans if he had to. No one hurt his Siana.
His bear would rip out the throat of anyone who harmed her, and it would relish in the warm feel of prey’s blood heating its muzzle.
She didn’t have a lot of powers outside of her ability to manipulate emotions, but Frost would bet any day that, if Sin wanted to, she could crush his heart to a pulp right inside his body.
He wanted Sin like a vampire needed its next drink of blood. She was his life force, the spark that created the flame. The air that fed it and gave it power helped it grow and made it thrive.
“No way I could let you die after that kiss earlier. I’m not finished tasting you yet.”
Ice encrusted the dark fur lining the rim of her hood. Her face remained in shadow, but Frost didn’t have to see her to remember how her dark skin, the color of black oak, was the epitome of richness or how she always painted that slick smile her favorite shade of cranberry-red.
Had seen palaces forged of ice and magma, gone current surfing with mermaids, and played with orca shifters. None of them compared to his Siana.
