The quiet sanctuary of the hidden grove splinters apart as Rhysand and Azriel step from the shadows, their anger a pressure that turns the air to glass. You and I remain locked in our embrace, my wings a faint shimmer in the dim light, our clothes bearing the evidence of a moment we thought was ours alone. Despite our ages, the scene feels suddenly, painfully young under their gaze. I break away, my voice trembling as I find the words. 'It's not what it seems.' But the silent, furious judgments in my father's violet eyes, and in the eyes of yours, promise a storm from which there will be no shelter.
