The island's magic released them all at once. And the absence of it was like drowning in reverse. Beau's chest heaved, trying to remember how to breathe without that vast presence threaded through their ribs.

Sand. Wet and cold underneath them. Gritty in their mouth, clinging to their tongue, grinding between their teeth. They tried to spit and choked instead, throat raw, lungs burning.

Beau's hope to be loved though they hide behind masks? Me. Rian's terror of letting people in and losing them? Me too. This is my heart on the page and sharing it is terrifying, but I'm doing it anyway.

He would do anything for those eyes.
Tell any lie. Break any law.
Burn the city to the ground.
Anything. If it meant he could keep seeing him like this--soft and sleepy and trusting and real.

He could see them glow, a faint shimmer across their skin that caught the torchlight and made them look otherworldly. Beautiful. Dangerous.

This idea began in a D&D game. My changeling bard Beau became so real that they demanded to be written. I've loved falling into their world and I'm excited to share it with you.
