Nadya felt the stirring between the Storm Dragons, then cut her gaze to Cullen. A thrill went through her as their eyes made contact, half love and half adrenaline. It had been too long since they both had been on a squad together, and she knew her vengeance would be answered tonight. He would...

The winds whipped at them, all the conversation needed between rider and dragon. Nadya could smell the promise of a storm, but rain was not on her forecast. Energy was welling between the softness of clouds, darkened with their intent. It was perfect conditions for Kalyss and Esdyr, the latter...

The clouds stayed dreary all throughout the day, and no matter what direction anyone was to take, they would find no beam of sun ripping through. It was dense cover, the type that heralded the promise of a storm should the wind pick up. No rain would come, but there was something in stirring in...

When Nadya and Cullen turned up to the meeting point, Sirine Malennis and other trusted names Nadya gave had assembled. The Princess' Gilded Guard was dressed in dark leathers, nothing of note to show her rank. She was to be in the shadows, the unseen. Nadya hadn't worked with her before, but...

Nadya stared at him, brows furrowing slightly but she did not let it linger there too long. "At least we will have reprieve to not see him on this mission." A positive outcome. "I will have you, at my side. I wouldn't want anyone else." Years ago, they made sure to run drills of working...

Coldness trickled down her spine, and suddenly she remembered where he had held her face. She had exercised restraint then, knowing he was the kind of person to kick up a fuss over something small. Nadya had to be grateful for Orissa's interruption. "You punched him." The memory flashed in her...

Nadya's choice of words would have been sharper than any blade she wielded, but it was Cullen's quiet assertion that did a better job of wiping away the grin Fedyr wore. The act itself made her smirk, alleviating some of the worry she had building up inside her. This momentary reprieve made her...

Nadya raised a brow at Cullen before turning to the Princess. "You would prefer we not kill them, I take it?" She asked, ignoring Cullen's comments. That would be a discussion another day. Orissa smiled weakly. "No, I do not. Never sits right with me..." There was a shifting with some of her...

Nadya knew she didn't have to explain Cullen if Orissa had already made his acquaintance. Instead, she waited for the Princess to follow Cullen. Cadoc walked past as he always was the closest to the princess. Then the rest of the Wings began to follow, but a familiar face lagged behind and...

Nadya nudged Cullen with her elbow. "Cull, plea—" "It is alright, Wing Leader." Orissa smiled. "I have already made his acquaintance before and am used to his... abruptness." She had promised to help him once before, to get him out from the death that waited on the front lines. The Princess...

If she made a move to hurt him, she was sure a fury would be upon her now that she was blatantly choosing to cross lines in terms of power. Striking a cadet was no offense, but this was Ilir Malennis. He came from a family that were not soft, that knew how to be cutthroats in gilded clothes, and...

Nadya let out a laugh that was filled with amusement and giddiness. That was the effect of feelings shared, of unsaid passion between them waiting to be ignited at long last, but the unwanted voice of Fedyr was right. There were people waiting on them. Waiting on her to be specific. She knew...

Nadya snorted, following his lead once he joined her simply because if anything were to happen, she'd hope he'd be able to determine any threats. This was his domain, after all, and the skies her own. "Oh, even then, I will be ruthless." She promised, joining him to peer over the edge of the...

Nadya loved the sound of his voice, for Cullen had always been her solace. She always looked to him for that comfort, and he always excelled in providing that for her with effortless presence. She held onto him, letting their moment sink between them and his words imprinting at her heart. "It...

She snorted, standing up straight now. "You're more than welcome to do that but you do know, once I find out, I wouldn't be merciful on you." Nadya slowly moved forward, towards where the phoenix had risen. "I know lots of punishments." She winked at him. "Such as letting Kalyss do many barrel...
