“Promise me,” Tarekh says in a low voice. When I glance over, he continues. “Promise me that if she’s dead, you’ll put an end to me, too. I won’t live knowing that I failed her.”

stare at him. We’ve been through a lot, he and I, and Tarekh’s always been light-hearted and easy-going. This isn’t him. But I’ve never been mated. I don’t understand what it’s like. This sits wrong with me. But I also know what it’s like to want to die. So I nod.

Iris lifts her chin, and both Kivian and I suck in a breath at the same time. Her eyes aren’t hidden by shadows. They’re gone, nothing but dark, angry scars remaining in their place.

My heart skips a beat at that smile. For that, I’d do anything. For her, I’d move asteroids and fly through black holes, unafraid. I’m hers in that moment. Completely and utterly hers.

“Listen for the authorities,” he tells me. “These are the local comm channels that the police and militia in this system use to communicate. If you hear that they're mobilizing, let me know. If you hear anything out of the ordinary, you tell me. Don't be afraid to speak up.”

He's my new fave character I cant wait for his book! Like this is so nice of him to give her something to do!!
