Weirdest thing I can’t find it either. It all takes place before this novel starts so it is from his childhood till during the dragon campaign and it is great
🥺🥺 poor max getting jealous but little does she know . Strong recommend reading Riftan’s POV
As far as Maxi knew, Riftan had no mother, sisters, or other family members. Why, then, did he have all this jewelry? It was also strange, in fact, that he had had such an extravagant dress prepared within a day of her arrival. Could it have belonged to a former lover?
Suppressing her embarrassment, Maxi carefully worked her hands through his soft hair. Riftan gently licked the droplets of water pooling in the hollow pit of her collarbone. It was like bathing a large dog; he could not stay still, licking everything he could reach. Her mind traveled back to the time she had sneaked out into the garden as a girl to play with her father's hound. They had splashed water over each other just the way she and Riftan were doing.
Oh my god I know! I read his POV and now re reading it everything is so powerful and emotional
Not knowing what to do, she crouched next to him. Knights valued honor more than their own lives, and a knight would never bow his head before someone who was not his sworn lord. But Riftan always stooped before her for the most trivial affairs.
