[FEATURED ON WATTPAD ROMANCE] He was beautiful, all tousled, ink-black hair and elegant cheekbones, but his eyes were what kept her gaze locked on him. They were a brilliant gold, like rich honey, framed by long, dark eyelashes. There was a hint of mischief in them, and in the curve of his lips. He seemed her age, about seventeen or eighteen, and was dressed in a dark lightsuit and tactical boots. She could see a leather sword strap across his chest and the glint of blades in the lining of his jacket. The knife she had thrown at him was in his hand, fingers gripping the handle loosely. He raised an eyebrow at her. "Do you normally throw knives at strangers you don't know? Or just the good-looking ones?" There was a hint of amusement in his voice as he spoke. ______________________________________________________________________________ Sophia Altus, daughter of the Ice Queen, has lived all her life with no real danger.
