Here is a little snippet of another story in progress! Can’t wait to share it with you! If you are a Cassian girlie or an Azriel girlie, this one is for you!
Also, if you have submitted asks, I am working on those as well and posting all of Rhysand’s story this week. I had a scare where I thought lost it all on a drive but was able to revive it.
Anyway- enjoy the sneak peek!!
Azriel's gaze jerks back to Cassian, his eyes going nearly black. Anger and terror blaze in their depths.
Rhys has gone very still, watching the situation unfold with narrowed violet eyes.
Cassian stops just before the stage, his expression oddly grim. There is sweat on his brow, his chest heaving.
Like he ran the whole way here.
His gaze flicks to Azriel, to the way Azriel's entire body has gone rigid beside him, and his jaw clenches.
Cassian's hazel eyes lock onto yours, and he sinks to one knee before you, right there in front of the entire crowd.
"If you're going to pick anyone," he rasps, voice rough with emotion, “pick me."
Azriel snarls, his wings flaring wide.
But Cassian doesn't even glance his way.
His gaze never wavers from yours.
“I've been in love with you for years," he admits quietly, the words barely audible over the gasping crowd. “I just never said anything because-“
"Because he was my brother."
Absolute, deafening silence.
Azriel's voice is lethal as he steps forward, shadows boiling around him.
“You don't get to do this," he snarls at Cassian. “You don't get to..,to confess to her like this, like some fucking -“
Cassian rises to his full height, turning to face Azriel fully.
“Then stop me," he challenges, voice low. “Fight for her. Properly. Or step aside."
Azriel looks like he's been stabbed.
And for the first time in months...
You see the truth in his eyes.
Pure, unfiltered terror at the thought of losing you.
His breath comes in ragged pants as he stares at you, waiting…
