This scene won't be released for like a week, but I don't mind sharing it a little early!
Strange patterns danced before his eyes as he stared up at the sky in wonder. Sensation raced up and down his spine as he realized what heād just witnessed.
For the briefest of moments, he was caught under the full power of the sun. Terrifying, all-consuming, and destructive. And above all else, incredibly, unspeakably gorgeous.
He shivered, every hair standing on end as though he were out pantsless in the middle of winter. Heat lingered on his exposed skin like the hands of a lover, unwilling to let him leave when duty began to call.
The grass crunched beneath him as he shifted. All the overgrown greenery turned had to delicate, golden filigree in that blinding white instant. Birds screeched their fear and terror into the empty blue skies. Songbirds and ravens and crows all joining in on the doomsday chorus.
