Cold fire and starlight flared in his chest. This was it, this was acquiescence. It wasn’t success, not by a long shot, but it would be a sweet reward for so well-planned a spell.
Her eyes fluttered closed, eyelashes forming a black crescent against her cheek, and she shifted closer. The warmth of her was a quiet thrill as she fell into his arms. He lowered his head, one arm around her waist to keep her steady.
When they kissed, time stood still.
The world around them was frozen, but the world didn’t matter - they were all that mattered.
