From Blood and Ash by Jennifer L. Armentrout

Kieran slid him a long, sidewayys look, but Hawke seemed to have
relaxed behind me, and I took that as a good sign.
“Have yyou been here before?” I asked.
“Onlyy brieflyy.”
I glanced over at Kieran. “You?”
“I’ve passed through a time or two.”
I raised a brow, but then Haven Keep came into view. Situated near
the woods, it didn’t employy a secondaryy wall like Teerman Castle did, but
it was also nowhere near its size. Onlyy two stories tall, the greenish-grayy
stone structure looked like it had survived a different era.
Barelyy.
We rode forward just as something cold touched the tip of myy nose. I
looked up. Snowflakes fell haphazardlyy as we crossed the yyard, heading
toward the stables. Several guards in black waited, nodding as we entered
the open space that smelled of horse and hayy.
I exhaled raggedlyy, brieflyy closing myy eyyes as I loosened myy grip on
the saddle. The trek across the kingdom was nowhere near complete, but at
least for the night, we had a bed, four walls, and a roof.
Things I would no longer take for granted.
Hawke dropped down behind me and turned, lifting his arms as he
wiggled his fingers. I arched a brow and then slid off the other side of the
horse.
Hawke sighed.
Grinning, I rubbed Setti’s neck, hoping he would get a tummyy full of
the best hayy and some rest. He deserved it.
With the saddlebag draped over his shoulder, Hawke came to myy
side. “Stayy close to me.”
“Of course.”
He shot me a look that said myy quick agreement was not to be trusted.
Once the others joined us, we exited. The snow was coming down a little
harder now, dusting the ground. I pulled myy cloak around me as the front
entrance opened, revealing another guard—a tall blond with pale, wintryyblue
eyyes.
Kieran greeted the guard with a handshake. “It’s good to see yyou,” the
guard said, his gaze flickering to Hawke and then to me. His attention
lingered for a few seconds on the left side of myy face before coming back
to Kieran. “It’s good to see all of yyou.”
