About this Book

Print Excerpt


“You want me to dance the rite with you?” Mehr said, not trying to hide the disbelief in her voice.

“That is how Amrithi greet storms, Mehr,” Lalita said, amused. She patted Mehr’s hand. “Don’t worry. I’ve taught you everything you need to know.”

“I thought you were leaving.”

“For this,” said Lalita gently, “I can delay my journey a little longer.”
