   Summary

   Set in the beginning of Siege and Storm, Alina was never rescued from that ship.

   ———

   “I don’t want to hurt you more than I already have, Alina.”

   With that, I laugh. “Yes, you do. You’ll stop at nothing to get what you want.” He shakes his head, turning it up to me again. He stares at me with those dark eyes, the same look he gave me when he found Mal and I in the Fjerdan borders, about to kill the stag.

   “Everything I do is for both of us.”
