Though her exterior remained rigid and more prickly than a cactus on dawn court, her careful eyes never left Ceinwyn as she stood. Ready to support the faun if she needed it. Relief that neither of the two would be able to pick up on settled in her belly. Harper knew her healing ability with...

A stiffening of her shoulders everytime Ceinwyn said thank you. Two words fae just did not utter. It was a binding debt. And Harper did not like anything binding. She was nearly ready to silence the faun with a wet palm over her mouth when Razareal spoke up. Harper remained in the water...

A look of surprise as Ceinwyn answered where she was from. A slight stiffening of her shoulders before she controlled her features back into a blank mask. Was the faun one of the bounty hunters after her? No, couldn't be. They didn't know she was from Summer. Her identity should be safe...

She heard every word the Spring Knight said. Strange that he was here in fall. And she didn't really care other than he'd killed her only lead. And it was clear she was still pissed about it. The sounds of a small river began to filter up from the bottom of the hill and soon enough the lazy...

"Now you're worried about respect after a beheading?" An incredulous snort and shake of her head but she did step back. For the faun's sake. "And do not judge what you don't understand." A low whisper of warning as she turned her head into the breeze before and knelt on the musty earth of...

Blue eyes like sunlight hitting the warmer waters on the Cortosi coast ROLLED. A sniff of the air told her exactly what he was. A Sidhe. Like most Duanan she met, this one was no less uppity and privileged. A bold step forward, then another. It was clear she would not by shying away from...

She'd been tracking him. How many trails had gone so cold before this? Would this one as well? And she was so close when a sharp scream filled the air. Her footsteps traveled lightly along the swampy ground of Autumn. It helped the water nymph that there was so much available water - even in...

"I feel closer to you in this one week than I've felt by some I've known my entire life," she admitted quietly. A glance up the hole of the burrow. "Let's go." According to Yujin, they still had a lot to do. And she still needed to find her brother. She hadn't told Yujin yet. That would...

A bob of bright green hair wove through the crowds of duanan, puca, and all manner of fae. The Groundskeeper of the Winter Queen kept her blue-eyed gaze alert. She was still wanted by the Summer Courts. Perhaps it was foolish to be here. This far from the protection the border that Winter...

She didn't know when or how it happened but her eyes closed and she fell asleep. And for her to do that, she must've felt warm enough. And safe with Yujin's embrace within their little hovel away from the storm. Away from the world. And at least this time, neither of them were nursing...

The embrace fit. She felt as though, in this moment, she was made to fit against Yujin's side. And like their retreat in the mountains, she knew she didn't need to say anything. She relaxed against him. Eyes remained closed as she felt the puff of his warm breath against her skin. She...

It didn't take much for her to lean into him. A flicker of surprise along her brow. Her arm snaked around his torso. She leaned against his chest and wrapped her other arm around him. When was the last time she hugged someone? Let someone hug her? A sharp inhale as it made her further miss...

She listened quietly. It was clear he'd been solely dedicated to his work with the Winter Court. For his queen. Did he regret it? She may have caught a little of that in his tone but she wasn't quite so sure. Her gloved hands ran together. Trying to keep her fingers warm as she sat there...

She lingered in his arms even as her boots touched the ground. A light brush of her nose against his cheek as he stepped back. It was hard to say if it was just the way he'd stepped back or if she'd wanted to catch his scent. Rest a fraction of a second longer in his warmth. She looked down...

She didn't quite know what happened. One moment she was falling and the next she was in Yujin's fae-arms in a warmer, quieter, and intimate space. But she wasn't so concerned with that. Once she re-oriented herself, she found mostly relief that he was okay. Call it instinct. Or maybe the...
