“His eyes shone when he looked at her, green as spring grass.
He has always had green eyes, said the voice in her head. People often marvel at how much alike you are, he and your mother and yourself. His name is Jonathan and he is your brother; he has always protected you.

Jordan looked at him levelly. “So you’re saying that what brings you peace … is war.”
“Now you get it.”
