    Summary

    A cloud drifts by. The bluebells sway. He reaches over, plucks one, and holds it up to her without looking: he just extends his arm, the small violet-blue flower pinched between his fingers, an offering.

    She takes it. Tucks it behind her ear.

    When she looks down again, he's watching her with that expression. The hazy one. The soft one. The one that makes her feel like the only person in the world.

    "For you," he says quietly, like she didn’t already know.

    The tournament for her hand is coming, and Samira has so little time left with him. She’ll take every minute she can get.

    An expansion to chapter two of “nothing so royal as truth.”

    Summary

    When he boards the elevator he’s upset. By the time he leaves the elevator he’s angry, each reverberation of his feet hitting asphalt felt in the remaining bones and surgical grade titanium in his right leg, all the way up to his hip. It takes him less than sixty seconds to walk from the parking deck to the ambulance bay. Ten feet from the entrance, he sees Robby walk through the first set of doors, past Ahmad, and then through the second set of doors. His pulse roars in his ears, his heart pounding in his chest. For the first time in years, Jack Abbot feels something approximating rage, an emotion he has long assumed to be medicated out of him.

    His hands furl into fists.

    ++

    Robby commits the critical error of making Samira cry. Jack reacts.

    Summary

    She's wiping at her face with her hands. It's futile. He pulls up outside her building, and she's already reaching for the door handle with her dripping hand. She leaves behind a shiny wet spot. He turns off the car and reaches for his door as well.

    Emma stares at him as he rounds the hood of his car toward her. “I'm—”

    He doesn't know what she planned to say. Just pulls her close. Use my fucking shirt, he thinks, cupping the back of her head. Christ, he's lost it. But he's already here. So he presses her face to his chest so her tears soak into cotton. He'll wash it when he gets home. They were his tears anyway. He caused them, and he always cleans up his own messes.

    Summary

    “Get it together, Nolan,” he speaks right behind her. Right over her shoulder. Cold salt air grazing her jaw. “I don’t have time to babysit you.”
