Chapter 18: The Bed of Frost
Luan held a cup of water in the red lamplight and watched it turn to ice.
It happened slowly.
A white skin crept across the top, thickened, and clicked against the sides of the cup.
She turned it upside down, and a frozen disc fell on the sheet.
"It's coming from the heart," said Cangjue.
He sat against the pillows with his hand over the clear place on his chest, where the little white light was beating hard.
"The Lady of the Frost Moon had power," he said. "It's leaking out of the heart every time you want me. Look at your hands."
She looked.
Her fingertips were rimmed with white.
A thin frost had grown over her knuckles and was spreading up her wrist, sparkling in the gold of the thread.
It did not hurt.
It felt like standing outside on the first morning of winter.
"Two nights," she said. "This one and tomorrow."
"Yes."
"Then I don't want to spend this one thinking."
She put the frozen cup on the floor.
She took his face in her cold hands, and he gasped at the touch and then leaned into it.
"Cold," he said, and shivered, and pulled her closer.
She kissed him.
His mouth was hot, and the cold of her hands made his breath hitch.
The frost spread from her palms across the sheets in long white ferns.
She pushed him back against the pillows and laid her palms flat on his chest.
