    Summary

    Instead of wings, long dark blonde hair fanned out on the pillows. A thin arm hugged the one this figure now rested her head on, as if she’d turned to grasp onto it whenever her bedmate had risen. Her breaths came slowly, deeply, a sign of an easy sleep.

    She was beautiful in the sunlight, which caught on the freckles sprinkled across her skin. Not even Mor could deny it as she took in the sight.

    But what was most striking was the fact that, underneath the sheet that had been drawn up to her shoulder, Nesta Archeron was decidedly bare in Cassian’s bed.

    Cassian stood in front of his dresser, his back facing her, yet had turned his head on her arrival. Seemingly frozen in the middle of buttoning one of the sleeves of the cotton shirt he’d donned – distinctly not his usual training leathers – he was looking at her with an expression Mor didn’t think she’d ever been on the receiving end of.

    There was no kindness there, no warmth that he usually greeted her with. Instead, there was a fierce irritation, a protectiveness, even. The message was clear even to her basest of fae instincts.

    A warning.

    Summary

    “Are you…” Nesta started, her voice nothing but a raspy whisper. “Are you real?”

    She said the words as if she couldn’t bear to speak them fully aloud, as if she didn’t quite believe that he was.

    Cassian blinked, brows furrowing. Not once had he ever seen her like this, not even when Elain had been put into the Cauldron, and not even during the war that followed. This was a level of horror he’d rarely seen in anyone, let alone this female, who was stoic until the last moment, always. And so, he heard himself say,

    “I’m real. I’m real, sweetheart. See?”

    Her eyes flicked down to his chest again, as if she didn’t believe him, and he reached for her injured hand gently, moving it so it could rest over his sternum, where his heartbeat rapidly.

    “What is it?” He asked again. “Was it a dream?”

    Her eyes met his, tears still streaming down her face. In a voice that was almost childlike, betraying her own confusion, she asked,

    “You don’t see him?”
