Thread: Consorting with Enemies
Post: RE: Consorting with Enemies

Post: RE: Consorting with Enemies

Natalie didn’t spend long showering, but she wasn’t surprised to find him asleep when she returned. She cleared the plate from his lap, noting the bloody jeans with at least a little distaste. Jay loo... |

Thread: Consorting with Enemies
Post: RE: Consorting with Enemies
Honestly, she was relieved by the irreverence. Nythadri would lean into ritual if she believed it meant something to him, but for her it would only be another mask to wear. So the threat of his half-g... |

Jay pulled her in close, and any tiny chance of untangling long enough to answer the door was long forgotten. Hands ran the length of her spine, twisting into her hair with a voracity that both surpri... |

Her gaze lifted as she watched him rise from the water. The breath quickened in her lungs, and if it was a wicked torment, it was a moment she lingered in without regret. The dim light shrouded a devi... |

Relief loosened a knot in her chest when his hand tightened naturally around hers. The lights back to shore were slow but sure, and she was quiet in the captivation, accepting it for the solace it was... |

Thread: Consorting with Enemies

Nythadri skimmed the words in dimness, too tired to summon light. A list of broken bones: collarbone, ankle, low back, nose, ribs. Twisted ligatures. Wounds and burns. Internal ravages that blanched h... |

Of the King’s actual schemes, Nythadri did not know beyond guesses, but she would wager Kaydrienne’s public retreat had been tactical and agreed upon. Trista’s role had clearly been the work of months... |

Arikan let them go, though he didn’t look pleased about it. Nythadri bit down on the urge to fire a scathing retort at his final comment, but instead ignored him entirely.
