It had been a week, two days, and six hours since I had last seen Kallias. I had walked into brunch, unsuspecting. Kallias was a High Lord. A High Lord. But that wouldn't change anything. The fact that I couldn't leave Andri, or my feelings toward Kallias. I don't know why I was counting the time, I didn't miss him. Kind of. I felt the booming of his heart, his breath in sync with my own. I missed seeing that smile, beaming with emotion. I still longed for his touch, for the feel of his body. Maybe I did love him, but I was Andri's fiance. I don't know what Andri would do if he knew I was another man's mate. I had heard, from Willa and a couple guards, that he was off in the north, readying forces. They all said that he would be back for the solstice ball. I hope he would be. My days at the palace without him were boring, nearing lifeless. My sister had wanted me to stay a bit longer, so she had sent Andri a letter, informing him that I was staying till the summer, for six months. My mind spun, possibilities of a happy future with Kallias... I didn't know if I could last that long.
