“The king sleeps still, under a mountain, and around him is assembled his warriors and his herds and his riches.”

Before Jesper was old enough to work the fields with his father, he’d been allowed to stay home with her. There was always laundry to be done, food to be made, wood to be chopped, and Jesper loved to help her. “How’s my land?” she’d ask every day when his father returned from the fields,  and later Jesper would  learn  that  the  farm  had  been in her name,  a wedding gift from his father, who had courted Aditi Hilli for nearly a year before she’d deigned to give him the time of day. “Blooming,” he’d say, kissing her cheek. “Just like you, love.”

she looked like a picture-perfect princess, but she could brawl with the best of them on the court.

“Maybe it wouldn’t hurt if I kiss you,” he whispered. “Maybe it’s only if you kiss me.”
