Cayan straightened up, too, stubbornness lining his face. “Not good enough.”
“What do you want me to do? Beg them to change the rules?”
“Not beg, demand.”
Shanti rolled her eyes. “You are the leader of a small nation, Cayan. Your desires mean nothing to the Shadow People. This is how it’s done. When we arrive, I’ll go into the trials, and you will secure the surrounding area. If I make it out, I’ll be relying on you to have everything safe within the city. Burson agrees. Daniels agrees. Rohnan, who has been assigned the duty of protecting me from childhood, agrees. Why can’t you get this through your thick head?”
Cayan stared down at her for one tense beat, his eyes on fire, his body looming over hers. The muscles in his arms flexed. Judging by the rage and desire both pulsing through his mind, he was fighting an impulse to both throw her overboard, and kiss her. It seemed he hadn’t yet decided which action he’d rather choose.
“Act on
either
of your thoughts, Cayan, and one of us is going swimming. I’ve survived stormy waters. Have you?”
His blue eyes flashed. With a rush of movement, he turned and stalked away.
Shanti let out the breath she didn’t know she was holding and sagged against the ship. She turned her gaze back toward the sea. If she could, she’d take them all with her. She did not want to walk into those trials alone. But what choice did she have? This was her duty. She could not back out now.
