“1) Aristide grabbed the arms of his folding chair and turned to us so fast he almost flipped his chair over. 2) Ker stood up so fast she stepped on her own tail in the process and fell down again. 3) Something loud crashed in the garage—Charon had obviously heard Shiloh’s question as well thanks to his elf hearing. I remained perfectly still—not because I wasn’t shocked by the question. No. It was only because of years of practice at passing as a normal cat that made me remain in Noctus’s arms. Well, practice, and maybe I was paralyzed in my shock. Noctus didn’t bat an eye, didn’t react to any of us, he didn’t even hesitate. “Yes,” he said. This time Aristide did tip over, but that was all I had time to see before I bonelessly slid off Noctus’s shoulder and pooled into his arms like goo, gazing up at him in horror. Have you lost your mind!? What could possibly inspire you to say that?”

“This is how Chloe, as a person, has swiftly come to mean so much during our complicated and short history. Despite all her personal fears and anxiety, she still reaches for me. She doesn’t flinch when she touches me, she doesn’t care if she must lean against my chest. If Amalourne was a pet’s love—warm but focused only on affection as a comfort and moment of peace—Chloe was the dangerous and alluring hint of a binding love—something that lasted through death, pain…and power. Something far deeper, far rarer, and far more precious. And yet, it is something I still can’t have. I doubt it’s what wild magic has in mind for her, but—more importantly—that’s the kind of love that is dangerous for me to have when my sole purpose in life is to fulfill my duties. It would distract me and keep me from it.”
