Cole’s gaze lingered on her as she tipped her head back, her eyes awash with a kind of awe that even he couldn’t ignore. The sky above them was a canvas of inky darkness, speckled with stars scattered like frozen dew, and he could almost feel the pull of the night—the vastness of it—through her.
He let himself fall into the same silence, his own head tilting to follow her line of sight. The stars winked down, cold and remote, but dazzling in their way. Then a streak cut across the night, white-hot and fleeting, disappearing before his eyes could follow.
Stjörnuhrap, she murmured, as if the word were meant only for the star’s brief, fiery life.
Cole watched her a moment longer, the foreign word rolling off her tongue soft and reverent, leaving him curious. The way she’d spoken it gave the moment weight. Something about it felt tethered to a memory, or perhaps a place far from here.
He glanced back to her, drawn by the mystery as much as her quiet awe.

Stjörnuhrap,he echoed, testing the word on his tongue with a quiet intensity. Though it was heavily butchered with his own accent, he still gave it his best shot.
What’s it mean?he asked, his voice low, though he made no effort to hide the intrigue in his eyes.
