    Private They Told Us To Take Teeth

    It took nearly all of Ledan’s discipline not to laugh outright at Madelief’s sudden display of courage. Now that she was no longer cornered, no longer prey, her tongue had found its edge again, and he could not deny the thrill of it. The irony was delicious: she wielded her bravado like a blade...

    Private They Told Us To Take Teeth

    Madelief's nerves betrayed her, but Ledan supposed he shouldn't be surprised she had difficulties maintaining her composure. After all, the two-faced mask he wore was fitted for him alone, and such forward facing treachery was not in her nature. No, the Toussaints waited until the curtain fell...

    Private They Told Us To Take Teeth

    That sick little sense of humor of Madelief's was probably why Ledan found her to be such tolerable company. Most people wilted when he aimed his contempt at them; she volleyed it back with interest. He liked that, as much as Ledan was capable of liking anything. It didn't mean he wasn't...

    Private They Told Us To Take Teeth

    Initially, Ledan ignored Madelief’s little threat. She ought to know better than to rattle her weavers at him—least of all when she couldn’t afford, nor truly stomach, spoiling the tidy arrangement they’d built. Instead, he let a smile stretch across his face as she settled in, as though they...

    Private They Told Us To Take Teeth

    "She’s been waiting for you for some time, Syr…" Ledan paused mid-motion, the glass tilting just shy of his lips. The deep red swirled, clinging to the sides like blood reluctant to leave a wound. His armored hand held it steady as his gaze slid, unhurried, toward the servant. Madelief’s family...
