“He had killed his way across the world; he had gone to war and back more times than he cared to remember. And despite it all, despite the rage and despair and ice he’d wrapped around his heart, he’d still found Aelin.

“I’m thinkin’, as payback for the hickey, I want you in that pink teddy thing tonight.”

“Luke!”
“Later.”
Disconnect.
Argh!”
