From Descension
Layla jolted when Quin opened her door. Then she rolled her eyes and took his hand, letting him pull her from the car. With a flick of his wrist, he shut and locked the doors. Then he pulled her close, keeping one arm around her as they walked into the surrounding forest.
Once they were shadowed, he opened his cloak, and she slipped her arms in, loving the soothing warmth of luxurious velvet. “You never told me how you keep from freezing,” she remembered.
“Magic,” he answered, carefully pulling her hair from the collar. Then he covered the tresses with a roomy hood.
“That’s all I get?” she objected.
“Are you cold?” he returned, an ornery twinkle in his eye as hooked the platinum clasp.
“No,” she answered.
“Then you don’t need more,” he refused.
She scowled, and he grinned, slipping his hands under the cloak and around her waist. Layla’s breath caught in her chest as he lifted her from the ground. Then she was face-to-face with him, lips fluttering around tiny bursts of oxygen laced with his scent, heart thundering as her cheeks burned.
“Is this okay?” he asked.
“Yeah,” she breathed. Aside from her embarrassing physical reactions, she was quite content. “It’s nice.”
“I think so, too,” he replied, supporting her with one arm as he reached up with the other. “I’m going to cast a spell to protect your ears from the pressure, but you shouldn’t feel any effects. Tell me if you do.”
“Okay,” she agreed, and he cupped his hand over her ears one at a time.
“Feel normal?” he asked, and she nodded. “Good,” he approved. “Tell me if that changes. Are you ready?”
“Yes.”
“Don’t be afraid.”
“I’m not.”
She meant what she said, but couldn’t help but squeeze her eyes shut and tighten her grip as he shot into the air, darting through a thick canopy of needle covered branches. When they reached open sky, he leaned back, letting her rest on his torso, and she opened her eyes, feeling foolish for closing them in the first place.
