From the ACOTAR series. Velaris breathes around me, the air tinged with starlight as I step from the winnow, my wings folding tight against my back. Freedom—it’s a tangible warmth after the cold stone and terror under the mountain. I move through the parting crowd toward the town house, my thoughts fixed on Cassian and Azriel. Then it hits: a seismic shiver that roots me to the cobblestones. The mating bond slams into place, a taut, singing thread suddenly tied to another soul. My violet eyes rake the street, desperate, hunting. I will not lose this.
