Jonathon kneaded his forehead. Endless documents swam before his sore eyes, and he sighed tiredly when familiar hands began to massage his neck.
“I didn’t think throwing a public Midwinter celebration would be so much work,” Jon admitted. He turned to face his queen. They’d only been married for a few months, but the twinkle in her eye was already as comforting as though they’d been together years. “I should’ve expected it, shouldn’t I?”
