    “It was with a shock that he felt the touch of Laurent's fingers against the back of his wrist. [...] Laurent was shifting the fabric of his sleeve, sliding it back slightly to reveal the gold underneath, until the wrist cuff he had asked the blacksmith to leave on was exposed between them.

    he smiled, the expression a

    C.S. Pacat
    “Laurent fought like he talked. The danger
    lay in the way he used his mind: there
    was not one thing he did that was not

    everything he did there were layers of
    intent, moments when expected patterns
    would suddenly dissolve into something
    else.”
