Kaz is well aware, without Nina to tell him, that his breath catches every time he sees her, even on a normal day. Even when she's just woken up. This, though...this is different. Inej steps out of the bedroom and Kaz forgets how to breath for a moment. It's like his heart forgets how to beat. Like every unconscious part of him grinds to a halt. He's built a life lived on chance and good fortune and he has never, ever felt this lucky.

It's almost enough to get him believing in God.

"I'm sure I've had this dream before," he says.
