Chapter Twelve

When night fell, they were forced to stop. Naya needed to rest, and Pandora could hardly see through the darkness. With all the strengths titans possessed, night vision wasn’t one of them. And while running through a flat desert landscape lit by glowing stars had been easy, beneath a carpet of trees, spotting uneven rocks and jutting roots had become more and more difficult with the setting sun. The moon was hardly more than a sliver in the sky, barely giving off light. Through the gently fluttering leaves, Pandora stared at the thin crescent while Naya quickly fell asleep beside her.

“What are you thinking about?” Sam asked gently, appearing by her side as the medium’s eyes slipped closed in slumber.

Pandora turned to look into his deep sapphire irises, remembering her nightmare as fire flashed in the depths of his pupils. Those angry orange-and-red flames were completely out of place with the man sitting beside her. “You.”

“What about me?”

She released a sad puff of air, glancing back to the forest floor, digging her fingertips into the dirt just to have something else to stare at. “I had a dream about you, and about me. We were…” She paused, drawing circles in the loose soil, watching her hand stain brown. “We were being swallowed in fire. Or maybe just you were. And I was holding you there. I don’t know why or how or when. But it felt real. It felt like a memory, maybe.”

“It wasn’t,” he told her quietly, bringing his hand down to cover hers, skin warm as usual, touch even softer than his voice. She met his gaze, trying to probe the depths reflecting back at her. “It was a dream, Pandora, only a dream. Don’t let it worry you.”

“Don’t let it worry me?” The corner of her lip twitched as she sighed. “Easy for you to say.”

His mouth lifted into a smile. “Do I look like someone who’s been burned at the stake?”

“No,” she answered, gaze dipping to his narrow hips, to the long legs stretched out before him, to the broad shoulders casually leaning against the tree trunk at his back. Barely four inches separated their bodies, and his golden skin was unblemished. Smooth and not bubbling, clear as her eyes could see. His muscles were strong, not shriveled. His hair fell in waves around his sculpted cheekbones, not frizzed and fried.

He was perfect.

With her focus still on him, Sam rolled smoothly to his feet, able and uninjured. Then he extended his hand forward, an invitation. “I have something I want to show you.”

Pandora’s eyes flicked up to his, which twinkled brighter than the sky above their heads. “What?”

“Just come with me. It’s a surprise.”

“I’m not a huge fan of surprises.”

His grin widened for a moment. “I know.”

She narrowed her gaze, trying to read his ever-mysterious expression, but he was still new, in this lifetime at least. She hadn’t known him long enough to read the grooves of his face, the shape of his brows, the emotion glimmering behind his eyes.
