This week, my swoon is from Lark Rising by Sandra Waugh!
"Gharain."
"Yes, Lark?"
"I yield," I murmured, and felt his lips take mine.
Sometime later in that night, I felt the sweep of something light against my cheek and then Gharain's lips by my ear. "Lark," he whispered, "I return these to you. I'd kept them, to have something of you near always. But now I have you."
And I turned to him and sought his mouth once more, and he let the feathers brush down my skin before reaching an arm back to tuck them into my sack - these namesakes, and sign,, and summon. This gift.
