Tell me now how I'm going to leave, if, when I met you, I started to dream, I did so many crazy things . I broke with the world, I burned my ships. Tell me where I can still go. If we, in the antics of eternal nights, have already confused our legs so much." The man paused briefly, using the time to take a deep breath and analyze the blue gaze that stared at her face, that infiltrated her soul and fixed the

It was stoic. "What do you mean by that?" Landa asked, her voice was quite rushed. "Don't tell me it's Vonen again." "It is." Just the whistling of the breeze was all we could hear and when we were able to understand that he was trying to make us reason bgie ourselves, I got frustrated to the core. That goddess was the last thing that I would want to tie down to my leg.

"You formed a coalition. You came across the world to find me. Tell me... have you had enough of the salt and the brine yet? Or do you need another 'gift' to remind you whose territory you’re standing on?" Landon let out a soft, dark chuckle. He swirled his wine, the liquid coating the glass in a viscous, blood-like film. The scent of dark cherries and cedar felt heavier now, pressing against her lungs. "You destroyed half my sensors, Little Rose, and in return, I’ve destroyed every ounce of peace you thought you found in this frozen hole," he said, his voice elegant but fractured, like fine crystal with a hairline crack. "A fair trade, wouldn't you say?"

Six years in the fifty years, two years to the fifthiet year When i was a child, my mama used to sing me a poem when i woke up from the nightmares. She'd wipe my sweat and brush away the hair sticking to my face. These hands have subdued stubborn jungles unmasked fertile groves and plumbed the seedful promise of loamy plains The hands calloused like a tortoise shell have tended tendrils, joyous, in their leafy dance on the spine of stakes

He was the perfect analogy for a sword still sheathed—concealed, yet undeniably lethal. Raising a hand, he smoothed his clothes, his bearing radiating an untouchable, aristocratic nobility. The warmth was utterly extinguished from his eyes, replaced by a stark, indifferent coldness, as if his heart could no longer be touched by earthly affairs. Homer had just opened his eyes. Seeing Landon like that, he tried to speak. Before he could, Landon flicked a hand, and Homer fell back asleep, the moment wiped clean from memory. …

Evander’s POV The moon casts a soft glow over Landon's garden, fine shadows and silver glow. And as I step on the grass beneath my bare feet, I fix my gaze on the celestial light suspended in the velvety night sky, the goddess's light, her radiance. A soft breeze rustles the leaves, and the scent of blooming flowers lingers in the air. I take a seat on one of the garden chairs, crossing my legs beneath me. “Enjoying the view, Evander?”

Antonio's proximity was overwhelming, and I could feel the intensity of his presence, a mix of boldness and unshakable confidence. He leaned in with a teasing smile, trying to reach underneath my garment while inhaling strongly. "You smell something sweet, Yvonne? Kind of like a delicate fragrance." Antonio was grabbing my waist, and he soon realized I was wearing nothing underneath. Seeing that I wasn't stopping him, he bent me over slightly. "Antonio, stop this. I'm your landlady!" "So what? Do you not want me to do this?" Antonio replied with a smirk. "You can't tell me you haven't thought about this. Look at you—you're clearly not pulling away. I can feel your back rubbing against me. I'

“Let’s see it.” I turned the paper over, and revealed the poem scrawled in pencil on the back. Down the streets of woodland black I wander, earth to hearse In every tree I see a wave A looming tidal curse On the cusp of something greater Stood ankle-deep in floodwater Stagnant pools of brown and red The onslaught is coming; I dread For each dark night and each pearl day The mist does clear too soon The floodplain is drown’d again The water, torn from its ocean womb

"We have poets who spend their entire lives trying to capture the feeling of the first rain after a drought. They use a structure called 'The Golden Verse'. It’s patterned, like a heartbeat." He quoted a few lines for me in a low, melodic voice. It was about a sun-scorched earth finally meeting the sea. He told me about his kingdom, describing the white stone cities that sat on cliffs overlooking the ocean, and the vast fields of lavender that turned the horizon purple every spring.
