Summary
[U]nfortunately, not wanting to see her former lover right now isn’t a good enough reason to leave him to die in a rock. Damn it. She grasps his wrist with both hands and pulls.
When something gives just enough for her to lose her balance, it all turns so much more mundane than she always thought it would be. She has envisioned meeting Gale again, more than once. In all those fantasies, she is successful, in control. Gracious, but obviously better off without him. What she certainly didn’t envision was falling flat on her arse and spluttering in the resulting cloud of dust.
That he is on the ground next to her with little more grace to recommend him is only a mild consolation until his eyes fix on her and she sees all blood drain from his face.
“Ezra.”
***
Seven years ago, Gale left Ezra behind to pursue his calling. Now, she would argue she got the better deal. At least she doesn't have to rely on her ex for a steady supply of magical artifacts to avoid becoming a world-ending disaster.
