Summary
Sabine turned from the counter to place the whiskey glasses on the table. Instead, she found Shin, standing inches from her. The breath hitched in her chest at their sudden proximity and the electrifying energy that was crackling wildly in the narrow space between them. Shin’s mesmerising blue eyes were a deep ocean of turmoil and it only took seconds for Sabine to drown in them.
Holding Sabine's gaze unflinchingly, Shin silently took the glasses from her and discarded them on the counter behind her, to which her back was now pressed. Her breathing steady, she moved devastatingly slowly—as if Sabine were a spooked animal that might bolt at any minute. Shin kept one hand on the counter, and reached up with her other to hold Sabine’s cheek in a tender caress. Her stormy blue eyes studying Sabine's expression attentively for any signs that she might protest to the sudden and unprecedented intimacy she had initiated.
She found none.
After returning from Peridea, Sabine and Shin spend one last night together before the New Republic decides their fate, and they must deal with the consequences of their actions.
