It felt too hot, too close, and the presence of Renji, despite his calm demeanor, only made it worse. It wasn\u2019t fear, exactly, but something about him stirred a strange restlessness in her, like an itch she couldn\u2019t scratch. She could feel his eyes on her from time to time, but when she glanced over, he was focused on Bran or Taren, talking casually. Still, it made her twitchy.<\/p>\n<p>She stood abruptly, the cave suddenly suffocating, and moved toward the entrance, needing to feel the open air. Once outside, she exhaled, leaning against the cool stone as the setting sun cast long shadows over the desert. The air felt lighter out here, but that persistent feeling of unease remained, tugging at the edges of her thoughts. She examined the rocky horizon, her senses tuned for any sign of Hollow-born approaching, yet her mind kept drifting back to Renji.<\/p>\n<p>Why does he get under my skin? she wondered, watching the sun slowly approach the horizon.

Her body tensed as she slipped quietly from the shadows outside and stepped into the cave\u2019s dim interior. Rynna\u2019s gaze darted to where Taren and Renji sat, their heads bent close, voices hushed as firelight danced from a small lantern. Renji sat back, though his eyes gleamed in the dim light like a serpent coiled and waiting to strike.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Bran had slumped against the cave wall, his head bobbing as he drifted into sleep, a thin line of drool dangling from his mouth. \u201cEverything all right in here?\u201d She looked for any sign of trouble. Taren glanced up, his expression a mask of forced calm, though his knuckles were white where he clenched his fists against his lap. \u201cIt\u2019s fine.\u201d A muscle in his jaw ticked. \u201cIf you say so.\u201d Rynna\u2019s eyes found Renji.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>No part of this publication may be reproduced, distributed, or transmitted in any form or by any means, including photocopying, recording, or other electronic or mechanical methods, without the prior written permission of the publisher, except as permitted by U.S. copyright law.
