They’re safe and comforting, the eyes of my friend.

His stare lingers on Kai. “Can you explain why this cell was covered in her scent when I arrived here?” Shock spikes through my system. He could smell—surely not. A guard had to have let it slip, or he overheard a conversation. I look to Kai, but his gaze remains on the soldier, glaring at him like he’s little more than scum on his boot.

Well, that was easy. Too easy … But Kai seems satisfied, already leading me to the door by my elbow, knocking to signal the guards outside that we’re done. I dare a glance at the soldier before I’m ushered out. I’m either more gullible than I thought or there’s something like unfettered concern in his eyes as he watches us leave. “Until next time, Brynn.”

be within a couple of hours. “Did you ever gather any more intel from him?” He shakes his head. “Nothing more than what he revealed to you.” I don’t like it. Letting him die … for what? “Surely he didn’t come all this way just to apologize,” I say. Kai cocks his head to the side, eyes going to the horizon visible through the trees before he looks back at me, defeated. “Go back to your shiel. Close your shutters and hunker down. It looks like it’s going to be a doozy.”

His fingers tighten over mine. “Jovie.” He forces it out between breaths. Water coats his eyelashes, falling onto his cheeks. His skin is alabaster, the rich color of his cheeks that day in the Market long gone, making his already dark eyes all the more intense. “That’s your name, your real name—Jovie.” There’s goodbye in his tone. I shake my head.

Blue dives in from above, his form changing mid-flight. Messer lands on his feet.

Acker must have been no more than five. Behind him stands a woman with curly hair and a vibrant smile, her hand resting on her husband’s shoulder. A young Grenadine stares back at me. The crabby old woman that lived next to me in Alaha. I’m sure of it.

“If he so much as looks at you wrong—” “I’ll kill him myself.” He kisses me quickly then lets me go. “Don’t tell Messer.” “Why?” He makes a curious face then says, “’Cause he’ll lose his shit.”

Then it’s gone, and when I open my eyes to look at him, the hate has returned with a vengeance. He slaps me across the face and I’m stunned.

Pain lances across my face, and the last thing I see is a view of Acker’s bedroom and the figure of a woman asleep in his bed.
