Pain hit him like a mailed fist to the head—except it didn’t stay in his head. It radiated through his body, all of it—bones, ligaments, muscles, even his skin—cramping with convulsive force. He was simultaneously viciously cold and burning up with fever.

“Stay with me, Jak,” Stella coaxed, her voice like a gentle sea on a warm afternoon. “I know it hurts, but it won’t last long.”

She was right—already the first bloom of agony was fading into a dull, roaring ache. Forcing his eyes open, he found her lovely, serene face hovering over him, her eyes silver as the full moon, brimming with magic. Her dark hair spilled around them both, like the shadows of Moranu, the gentle, shrouding night embracing them. The fine point of her widow’s peak marked the apex of a triangle framed at the bottom by her winged brows, the center opening into a third eye that gazed at him invisibly.

“Welcome back,” she said with a sweet smile.

Lifting a hand, he slid it behind her neck and pulled her down for a kiss. Her lips, unbelievably sweet and soft, moved over his in a benediction, like life itself. With her healing magic thrumming through every cell of his body, it seemed she breathed him in with the kiss, the life flowing back through her cupped hands over his heart, pumping into his lungs, and breathing out again in an endless circle.

He kept it brief, aware of paining her, though he couldn’t imagine how he could be any more a part of her than in that moment. “I nearly died without kissing you. No way I’d risk letting that happen again.”

She smiled, eyes radiantly silver, and she seemed about to say something. Then her eyes dimmed, rolling up, and she collapsed over him.
