    Summary

    “Archeron,” he says, when he’s close enough to count each individual hair in the fan of dark lashes. She goes still in that particular, feline way, gaze lifting to his like it’s unspooling from a reel. The slow recognition in her eyes does something ugly and sweet to him.

    “Hello Cassian,” she says, dry.

    “You look—” He stops. Beautiful is a word that feels to intimate. Too much like everything they’re not. “—like you’re on the hunt.”

    “I could say the same about you.” Her mouth tips.

    The music makes the floor vibrate under his boots. He’s aware of his hand—of the ring. Of his entire body thrumming. “Can I buy your next one?”

    “You can,” she says, considering him over the rim of her glass, “but I may refuse to drink it.”

    “Sounds a bit bratty, Nesta.”

    She hums. “What ever will you do about that?”

    ____

    When Cassian lets his family convince him that Nesta isn’t the right woman for him, he marries his safe choice. But cutting Nesta out of his life proves more difficult than he thought.

    Nesta promised herself she’d never become that woman. But letting go of the love of her life appears to be impossible. Until she meets someone with auburn hair and amber eyes.

    Summary

    The declaration slams into her. Shackled. The fissure of her heart is so stark and sudden, she’s surprised nobody hears the resounding crack echoing through her. She staggers back a step, putting distance between them. It makes that bond, that thread attached to her rib, linking them together, ache painfully.

    _____

    When Cassian breaks Nesta’s heart, she leaves Velaris, determined to leave everything and everyone behind for once and for all.
    Unbeknownst to him, Cassian is at risk of loosing not only the love of his life, but a chance at having the one thing he has craved ever since being dumped at the Illyrian war camp as a youngling as well.

    Summary

    “Tell me what you want,” she whispers, grinding once—gently, expertly.

    “I want,” he says, voice rough with control, “for you to do whatever you want to do to me.”

    She freezes for just a second. Then she turns around, straddling him fully, her knees caging his hips. Their faces are inches apart. She cups the back of the couch, her body swaying to the rhythm.

    “So this is a game, then?” she asks.

    “It might be,” he says, low. “Or maybe I just like to watch you wreck me.”

    ________________

    Nesta Archeron doesn't do repeats. She doesn't get attached. But something about Cassian—his restraint, his hunger, the way he looks at her like she's something holy and not just another transaction—makes her want to break all her rules.

    What begins as a distraction turns into something far more dangerous. When Cassian returns seven nights in a row their dynamic turns into a slow, burning power play neither of them fully controls.
