{Ayla POV}
I wake up to gentle snow falling on my face, its early morning,I stand up and instantly feel the wait on my back, wings. How can I have wings they were chopped off?
They weren't like Az or Cass's wings nor were they fevered like some Other wings, they were shadows.
I spread my wings out, they are stronger then my old wings, I shoot into the orange stained sky.
I spread my wings out again so I can glide along the wind, it's been years since I've flown along side the wind.
I push my wings against the wind shooting me faster towards the town house, I feel complete again, I feel like all the fight that had gone out of me was back.
As I get closer to the town house I see Cass on the roof, showing Feyre some fighting stance.
I let out a whoop, witch gets their attention, I rap my shadow wings around me and dive, spinning in the air and spiralling towards the ground, I see Feyre and Cass rush to the edge to see were I've gon, I spread my wings out at the last moment and rise back up to level with the roof. I land steadily on my feet, and grin at the two fish mouthed idiots.
" what the fuck." Was all Cass could get out, Feyre nodded in agreement.
" do you mean that," I point over my shoulder to we're I had just dropped, "or my wings?"
" well both, but first how do you have wings and second what are they made out of?" Cass asks still shocked,
" there made out of shadows,my shadows." I reply.
" your shadows?" Feyre speaks this time, " ye, I don't fully know how it works ether."
" we could ask Az or Amren." Cass buts in after he's finally stopped starting at my wings like a child, " let's ask Mum, don't exactly want to speak to Azriel right now." I say, " mum?" Feyre asks
" oh, Amren, sorry I'm use to calling her mum." I answer, " she actually lets you call her mum?" Cass asks, " she says she doesn't like it but, I think she does." I reply Cass gives me a look and says, " I doubt that." I just grin at him, I cup my hands around my mouth and yelled, " MUM!" Feyre and Cass give me a confused look until Amren appears next to me daggers in both hands and looks like she's ready to kill someone, when she notices that everything is alright and that Cass and Feyre are standing there she instantly goes back to her cold self, she points a dagger at me and says, " how many times have told you not to do that girl?"
I just keep grinning at her, her eyes widen when she notice my wings.
The roof door slams open to reveal a red cheeked and panting Mor with Rhys and Az standing behind her, they must of heard me yell, they look to Cass and Feyre then to me, they all have the same reaction to Cass and Feyre when they notice my wings, Az is quick to recover, as he walks past a still gaping Rhys and Mor, he asks, " how?"
" all I know is that there made by my shadow but other then that I don't know." I answer, he opens his mouth to say something but interrupted by Cass saying to Mor, " your out of shape, if running up those stairs makes you out of breath." Mor just gives Cass a rude gesture that has me hiding my laugh behind a cough, " where did you go?" Rhys says before Mor and Cass can start bickering, " I went to pine green pond" Az frowns at remembering the place and gives me a look saying ' we will talk later' I just nodded.
*****************
We had all moved to the living room and are all sitting down around the coffee table. "Does this mean you will train with me now?" Cass asks as he sits next to me, "fine" I say returning Cass's smile.
Mor and Cass go of into their own conversation and so do Rhys and Feyre, Amren has gon back to her apartment probably to be with varian.
" hey" a small tap on my shoulder has me turning around to face Az, " ye?"
" can we talk?"
" of course"
He leads me to the balcony where we last spoke, Az leans against the railing and pinches the skin between his eyebrows, before turning to me.
" I'm sorry" I say before he can say anything, I look down at my feet, "don't ever apologise," I look up at the sound of the emotions in his voice, " don't ever apologise to anyone and definitely never to me, I'm the one who should be apologising to you, I was the one who broke our promise, I didn't speak to you because I thought if I said the wrong thing you might leave and not seeing you for over a hundred years killed me and I couldn't live anymore of my life without you,"
I look down at my feet again and ashamed at what I'm about to say, My voice is barely a whisper, " why didn't you come after me?" Scarred hands gently lift my head up, " I did come after you but when I couldn't find you, I thought you were dead, three years I searched for you and I couldn't find you, I couldn't even find your sent, I thought you were dead and I gave up looking for you, I'm so sorry," His voice break, and I can feel tears welling up, "I'm so sorry, I should never of stopped looking for you, if I had never stopped looking for you then you wouldn't of lost your wings."I can see tears on his face that match my own, " I'm so sor....." before he could finish that sentence, I was hugging him, "just promise me never to shut me out again, ok?" I'm holding him at arms length now, " I promise" he says, as smile back at him, and start to pull away, " one more thing," he pulls me back to him, "let me see your eyes," I frown at him,
" those aren't my eyes, there my farthers eyes." I say, " no there your eyes."
I sigh and look away from him, when I look back at him my eyes are shining silver, not like Amrens how hers seem to swirl around, mine are steady and bright with a light green surrounding the pupil, he smiles at me, the balcony doors swing open, my eyes are instantly back to pine green, " you might want to come in before Mor drinks all the wine"
Cassian says I laugh shaking my head.
" I told you to leave them alone." Feyre says to Cass as we enter the living room. I sit next to Mor shoving Cass out of the way.
We stay like that for the rest of the day just talking and drinking.
**************
" so what time do I have to get up tomorrow?" I ask Cassian as I stand up to go to bed, " about 7?" He says " ok, goodnight" I say as I stretch my arm out in a pretend yawn and at the same time i stretch my wings out, slapping Cass in the face, everyone laughs at that, even Az has a small smile on his face, " hey, what was that for?" Cass complains while rubbing his red cheek, " mornings, are evil." I reply, he rolls his eyes, " fine half 7"
" half 8" I push back, "8" he says
" fine," I agree, " night." I stretch my wings out just a bit so when I turn around they slap him in the face again, I walk up the stairs with laughter following me.
