THEODOSA. The whiskey burned on the way down and I wanted more of it. Nala had taken one look at my face when I stumbled out of the palace and declared we were going drinking. I hadn’t argued. Hadn’t said much of anything. Just followed her through the streets until we ended up at the same bar from before, crammed into the same booth with the same group of people who seemed to show up whenever Nala decided I needed saving from myself. Hale was nursing something dark in a short glass. Afnie sat beside him picking at a bowl of nuts. Base had disappeared ten minutes ago with a woman who’d crooked her finger at him from across the room. And Beanne was watching me with the kind of concern that made me want to drink faster. So I did. “Another.” I slid my empty glass across the table toward Nala. She poured from the bottle she’d bought outright. “You’re going to regret this tomorrow.” “I’m regretting a lot of things.” I took the glass back and drained half of it. “Tomorrow can get in

XAHEN.I couldn't focus on a single fucking word being said.It was on days like this that I hated the fact that I didn't deal transport with Duskmire and Lucenia.Maybe if I didn't move important cargo between realms, I wouldn't have to sit here and listen to my council bicker around me while my head was splitting over whether or not my mate had slept with some random male.Once the issue was handled, the council was still gathered around the table doing what they always did. Hale was droning on about border security. Afnie kept chiming in about diplomatic relations with the southern territories.And Draven shot me a look from across the table every few minutes like he was waiting for me to snap.I wasn't listening to any of it.My brain was stuck on that cabin. On that man's hand grabbing at her waist like he had any right to touch her. On her stupid smile. On the way she'd let him shove his tongue down her throat in broad fucking daylight for anyone to see.She'd been on her knees

THEODOSA.Seven days of staring at the same four walls was enough to make anyone lose their mind.I'd counted the cracks in the ceiling. I'd memorized the pattern of the wood grain on the floor. I'd rearranged Nala's bookshelf three times and she'd yelled at me twice for putting things in the wrong order.There was nothing left to do.Except think about him.The mate bond had been restless all week. It pulsed under my skin like a second heartbeat, tugging at me constantly, reminding me that he was out there somewhere. Some nights were worse than others. Some nights I could feel his moods bleeding through the connection, dark and heavy and impossible to ignore. Those were the nights I couldn't sleep.Tonight was one of those nights.I was lying on the couch staring at the fire when Nala walked in from wherever she'd been. She took one look at me and sighed."You look like shit.""Thanks.""When's the last time you slept?""What day is it?"She dropped into the chair across from me and

XAHEN. Arrett had my order ready before I finished walking through the door. Six crates of batch forty-seven, wrapped and stacked by the counter like he’d been expecting me. He probably had. I showed up often enough that the man could set his calendar by my visits. I counted out the gold coins without bothering to inspect the bottles this time. Arrett knew better than to fuck with my order. He’d learned that lesson years ago when I’d put one of his workers through a wall for trying to pass off watered-down swill as premium stock. “Pleasure doing business,” he said as I grabbed the first crate. I didn’t respond. Just hauled the crates outside and stacked them against the wall where Nala’s magic would catch them when the timer pulled me back. Then I checked my pocket for the list. Still there. I had time to kill. Nala had given me forty-five minutes this trip and the transaction with Arrett had taken less than ten. I could stand around and wait for the spell to drag me home, or
