Finding your mate is only half the battle. Keeping them alive is the other when duty has other demands and Fate holds all the cards. On one card is written: “Vengeance has two paths—death or love. And a long memory.”
In honor of June weddings and the beginnings of lifetimes together, here's one of my favorite excerpts.
Excerpt:
His arm around Glynnes, Talann guided her toward the dark slit in the cliff wall that marked the entrance to their quarters. Once inside, he tightened the control over his thoughts. Glyn had to remain distracted, at least for now. There was information from Lady Eirwen he had not shared with the others. Just before he had died, the woodcutter had told the identity of those who led the raiders. Neither the name, Leirche, nor the description Eirwen gave matched anyone Talann knew.
His blood chilled at the lady ruler’s calm statement of a second man, the one who strode into the village and ordered the murders. No name was given, but Talann knew. It had to be the Parant. Somehow he had escaped the forces of the dragshi.
He reached for Glyn and pulled her into a tight embrace. All too soon they would leave for Alcari and instinctively knew from the gathering clouds, the departure would end in battle. If all the time they had was now, he planned to make it last forever.
