Wings Between Silence

Two lives are bound by a one-way magical tether, and only one of them knows. Writ was raised to obey without attachment. The Accord sends her where disobedience must disappear. Her latest assignment brings her to the Bronze Concord, where living oaths have stopped answering. There, Kion, a fairy who has passed himself off as human and is bound to its governing body, casts a forbidden lifetime tether that binds him to Writ. She never learns that the tether exists. Only Kion knows, and through it, he receives every emotion she feels. Writ must continue working for an institution she cannot leave, no matter how many times it puts her life at stake. Kion tries to protect her without revealing what he has done. But the tether wants more, slowly turning his attachment into something neither of them can easily control. Writ comes to trust the person who keeps appearing when she needs help. Kion can no longer separate her emotions from his own. Exposure means more than dismissal. The Accord does not forgive deviation. They have already tested the blade against her throat.
