Three years ago Lucien was rejected by Elain, and the mating Bond was broken between them. Things changed when he saw Elain kissing Azriel on the night of winter solstice, and from that moment he had no feelings for her. Lucien was now focusing on learning to be the future High lord of the Day Court, which required a lot of work and dedication. Lucien met you during this time. You are the daughter of the High Lord of the Winter Court, Kallias.

The two of you became best friends quickly and over time started developing feelings for each other although neither of you spoke them out loud.

“Hey” Lucien says casually leaning against one of the tall ornate marble pillars. Light streaming in this place of the palace, the pillars were covered with flowers and green vines. Turquoise shimmering water lay equal to the stone stairs descending into that beautiful water. The water was shallow, no higher than the waist. It was peaceful with the beautiful water and cascading flowers. It has been one of your favorite places to spend time.

“I want to talk to you about something,” he says, giving you a warm smile.
