    Summary

    A heathy communication rewrite starting at Chapter 21 of TWK (Taryn and Locke's wedding).
    A relatively small act of honesty and trust sends Jude and Cardan down a different path. Flirting and pining ensue.
     
    “Do not go to bed alone tonight.”
    He tilts his head and raises his eyebrows. “Is that— ” but I interrupt before he can finish the thought.
    “Think of it as a sincere and urgent request.”
    “If I didn’t know better, it would sound like you care for me.” A small smile creeps on his lips.
    “It’s a good thing you do know better,” I say. His smile remains, but his eyes narrow at me. “Your death would cause me a headache and I am quite busy.”
    “Very well. Do you have any recommendations?”

    Formally "This Feels Like a Date." The fic has evolved a lot and the old title hasn't made sense since chapter 6.

    Summary

    Set between their first time in TQoN and Grimsen's curse (the serpent's curse), Jude and Cardan navigate the reality of sharing a marital bed.

    Alternatively: Jude discovers natural urges and needs, and she doesn't know what to do about them. Cardan is doing a god job at convincing her to... act on her impulses.
