    Summary

    The barest hint of a smile tugs at his lips. “Ghost or not, you’ve haunted me.”

    The words settle into the air like a spell, one that spreads a tremor of warmth through you as you look up at him. “Then, I suppose I’ve done my work well.”

    His fingers brush along your wrist, featherlight but sure, sending sparks through your skin. “Too well,” he says quietly. “I’ll never be free of you now.”

    ---

    Your world is one where alliances are forged as much in quiet, stolen moments as they are at court or in battlefields. This beautiful boy with the beautiful eyes, bought for you to to advance your House's interests, is your due, after all. Nothing less than the second son of the second-most powerful man in the realm will do for the young heiress of a House old in honor.

    Houses old and new beget grudges old and new, as is the way of the court. Years, decades, centuries they might fester, until a spark is lit. Gods help you all when the blaze is ignited.

    It makes no matter. You have him, after all, the one whom your soul loves.
