    Private Tales Healing of the Heart

    Sierra instinctively reached for her magic with that shared look. Habits of fight or flight were hard to suppress. A peek into the emotions of those around her. There were deep shades of blues for loss. A simmering orangey-red for anger. And a sprinkle of black for bitterness. Sierra leaned...

    Sierra offered a small smile. The humanized-weapon didn't smile much. Mostly for Cillian and Rose. Even those were rare moments. But there was a ghost of one here, to Cillian's sister at the remark. She settled on Cillian's lap, fingers twitching to smooth out that smirk that seemed forever...

    Sierra smiled and joined Cillian to stand. Though her smile was tinged with caution. Even for Cillian's sister. The dreadlord couldn't help it and the old ways that had been instilled in her. Always be ready and asses any threats. Rose had no such hesitations. She slipped free from her...

    "Even taking elves out of the equation, I'm surprised dreadlords haven't killed their own off by now." She'd heard about the changes post-Revolution. No longer were the seniors paired up against one of their own to kill and graduate. But she'd also heard about what the last class had gone...

    Something in her heart cracked as Cillian's emotions poured forward. Deep blues and blacks flickered in the air around him from magical hues that only she could see. Her hand lifted and began rubbing gentle, soothing circles around his back. Rose's grin only widened before she nodded...

    Rose swallowed and smiled, a bit of chocolate on one of her front teeth. "Are they my age?" Sierra could feel the hope oozing off of Rose. Yellow was the string she saw to the emotion and it flickered and shimmered in a haze of that hue in the air around her daughter. While she and Cillian...

    Rose perked up, her mouth full of cookie as she asked. "Does that meanff I ave an Uncle and an Aunite?" Sierra grimaced. "Rose, do not talk with your mouth full of food." Rose clamped her open mouth closed and began chewing furiously. A quick nod of her head to Mom. "For what it's worth...

    No wonder why Cillian had never been scared of her. Look who he had as a mother. Though Rose was perfectly content munching on those cookies and sipping down her milk. Her blue-eyed gaze searched around the quirky-little space. No doubt looking for any creatures she could befriend. Sierra's...

    Sierra didn't hesitate in weaving her fingers through Cillian's own calloused palm. Her thumb smoothed over the outside of his hand. "A threat to eat cookies perhaps," she said, her lips twitching as she gave him a gentle tug toward following Morgase. The empath radiating small waves of...

    "This is your mother?" Sierra whispered to Cillian as they rolled up and Fraufrau came to a stop, pawing at the ground impatiently before bending her head to start munching on the sweet grass. Rose was not deterred by the much taller woman. She squirmed from Sierra's lap. "Rose," Sierra...

    Sierra winced at Farin's words. Her hand lifted, her fingers smoothing along Cillian's shoulders as she rubbed the back of them in a comforting gesture. A reminder that she was here with him. By his side. They'd face whatever was to come, together. With each brush of her fingers along his...

    Private Tales Healing of the Heart

    Sierra silently stared at them both, putting an instinctively-protective arm around Rose. Even if it was to protect the girl from her own exuberant love of strange creatures. Her magic was up as she sensed the emotions of Javid and Farin, their strings looking more brightly colored than those...

    One hand was firmly pressed against firmly squeezed eyes. But Sierra did finally crack one open to peek through fingers as Cillian spoke. Her mate's family was important to her. Fear of these kind of heights be damned. "Wow, everything is so pretty!" Rose exclaimed. "And look at the bright...

    Sierra's eyes had closed the moment they'd started going up. Her grip on Cillian's thigh unrelenting. But Rose squirmed next to her. Leaning across her lap. Leaning across Cillian's to get a better view over the side of the carriage. "Wow. It's so beautiful! Mom-mom-mom, mom, mom, mom...

    Rose giggled as the sensation made her stomach do some flips and twists. Sierra squeezed her eyes closed, her hand gripping Cillian's thigh as they entered the strange travel highway of the fae. It had always not agreed with her stomach. Her grip tightened. At least it didn't affect Rose the...
