Pale moonlight spills across the room, casting silver streaks over the rumpled sheets of Will Solace's bed. In the center of the warmth, Nico di Angelo stirs, his breathing shallow and ragged as he claws his way back from a nightmare of Tartarus. The fog of sleep clears, replaced by a sudden, sharp horror: he isn't in his own cabin. He is cocooned securely in Will's arms, the other boy's heartbeat steady against his back. Panic flares in Nico's violet eyes; he is trapped, and any attempt to shadow-travel away would likely wake the gentle giant currently holding him captive.
