As Kira studied the lethally sharp, double-edged, curved blade with a reddish-black stone embedded in the center of the etched hilt, those neon-green eyes came back to Týr. “Guardian, I entrust her to your care.”

Yeah, he got the caveat. No need. He’d let nothing harm her. Ever.

He’d lay down his life for her.
