Summary
With a wedding comes peace—peace between clans, peace across the mountains, peace in every fjord...
And chaos within Randvi’s very being.When she meets a wolf amid an unkindness of Ravens, she hardly expects the craving to invite such long teeth into the meat of her heart.
-
“If he hurts you,” she hisses, her breath warm on Randvi’s ear, “I am too far in drink to keep from striking him.”
Randvi twists to meet her gaze for an instant, their stares clashing. She wets her lips with a nervous dart of her tongue and finds strength in the hungry way Eivor tracks it. “Stand near and let me look at you, and it will be smoother for me.”
She does not linger to see the slight widening of Eivor’s eyes at that, the flare of her nostrils and the clenching of her jaw. Randvi turns and follows her husband to their bridal couch to the wingbeat cadence of her racing heart.

Summary
“Look at you,” Minthara says, with none of the cold disapproval that those same words had held when she’d first approached Shadowheart in the darkness—only hunger, want, and something of the knife-edge of triumph. “So very shameless. Is your goddess watching, little nightbird? Will she be pleased to see you wrecked upon my altar?”
Shadowheart is not shameless. Never shameless. But she is, perhaps, as close as she has ever been.

Summary
“Two dead humans each have bag with name. Third human bag not have you name. Where Grace bag, question?”
A pit about ten miles deep forms in my stomach.
The embroidery. He can sense the raised lettering, and now that he’s started learning to read English, he can tell that the only bag with Latin script is not my bag. Great. Yeah, this is exactly the conversation I didn’t want to have today. Or ever.

Summary
Silco gloats to a ghost about the daughter they share. The ghost gets the last word.
Silco digs his fingers into the shadow of bruise where the man he once respected, once loved, made his half-hearted attempt at an ending. It aches, almost enough. “You spent so much time raising her sister. Did you think your lessons would trickle down like Piltover’s waste?”
