After they ransack a village, the soldiers often leave children behind. What they didn't intend was for these children to band together, collecting the left-behinds and forming inexplicable bonds with one another that they call Connections. Kalista and Tarak share one of these bonds, but theirs goes deeper than most. Left scarred and unable to speak from a fire,  Tarak can only communicate through his Connection with Kalista and the mind-reading that has come of it. Kalista fears the complications that come with their Connection will be their downfall, but when one of their own is captured, they will have to rely on their Connection to save their band of rebels.

He asks me as he manages to place one of his hands on my face before he traces it down my neck, past my chest and down towards my hips where he grabs a solid hold of my thigh. - Yes, I have... I answer as I move my head slightly closer to his, my hands still around his neck. - What have you discovered? He asks as he moves closer to me in return, our eyes burying into each other. - That I want you, and that I need you. The tip of his nose barely touches mine, but the tension between us causes our skin to be ten times as sensitive as it normally is. - And...? He goes on. - I want you to claim me, Blake.
