Thin cushions of air catch my feet as I creep down the hall. My shoes don’t
hit the floor, and I make no sound. Creating the buffers beneath each
footfall takes little effort. The air around me practically anticipates my
wishes like a well-trained pet. Mother says it’s because I don’t force it, that
being friendly with elements makes them more cooperative.
Noises ring through the palace as servants clear breakfast trays and clean
every already-pristine surface. They’ll be busier than usual today. Even the
small family celebration of the prince’s birthday is a special occasion. After
all, this is the precursor to the coronation to officially mark him as the heir
—the very reason I float toward his chamber now. Past paintings in gilded
frames and ancient tapestries, I approach my target in silence. A flick of my
hand slides a wall of wind under the door, encasing the entryway. I open the
door and close it behind myself.
Prince Rylan sits at his desk facing the window. He’s likely engrossed by
some report or something, confident in his belief that no one can sneak up
on him. It’s adorable.=
Wind chimes tinkle delicately over my head—a rather useless alarm from
within my shield. You’ll have to do better than that to catch me.
I still the air around them and drop the shield. My lips press together as
the anticipation reaches its peak.
“Happy birthday!” The air works with me to amplify my voice.
Rylan jumps up, throwing the chair halfway across the room. The entire
palace shudders with his shock; his green eyes are like saucers when he
wheels on me. “Gods, Ara! We’ve talked about this!”
I collapse onto a featherbed of air in a fit of laughter.
“It’s not amusing.”
Between chortles, I say, “Oh, but it is. Your face…” Wall hangings
continue to sway slightly from the quake. If I weren’t already tearing up, I’d
cry from sheer pride.
The door swings open, and two figures appear. “What happened?” Marcus
demands.
“Arabella happened.”
“Arabella can’t shake the palace.” Nina sighs and glances at the wind
chime. “When did she figure out how to get past your alarm?”
Rylan crosses his arms and glowers at me. “I was about to ask her that.”
Another fit of giggles totters my shoulders until a shock of cold water hits
my face. I gasp and jump to my feet. “Marcus, that was completely
unnecessary!”
“Everything you do is unnecessary. Perhaps I’m learning from your
example.”
Ry rights his chair and sinks onto it. “Of all of us, Arabella is the sibling
you want to emulate?”
I pull a warm gust to dry my face and run my hands through my damp
locks, blowing heated air through the strands to evaporate the water. “Silly
Marcus, there’s only one among us worth modeling yourself after, and he is
your future king.”
Rylan rolls his eyes. “What do you want, Ara?”
“To bring you a gift, of course. It is your birthday, and I am your favorite
sister.”
