She looked down and saw that her tattoo, a symbol of her pack, was glowing with a soft, ethereal light. She looked up at Xerxes in surprise, and saw that his own tattoo was glowing as well. “What’s happening?” Esmeray asked, her voice filled with awe and confusion.

Jaxon slid a plate of pancakes in front of Brielle. “Eat,” he murmured. “You’re going to need strength.” Brielle gave him a look. “For the craft chaos?” “For parenting twins,” he corrected. Rose suddenly held up the crown with a proud gasp. “It’s done!” Lily clapped. “Mommy crown!” The crown was… something. It was slightly crooked. Completely covered in glitter.

Some nights, when she caught him looking at her a beat too long, she wondered what that restraint cost him.

The restraint that felt like it was holding something dangerous in check. “I don’t want you to stop,” Jamie said, then winced. “I mean….” Adrian didn’t smile. He didn’t gloat.
