Summary
He had never seen that exact expression on Jon’s face before. It was a combination of embarrassment, conviction, pity and guilt that did not bode well in the slightest. “It’s about the princess that was to marry Roald.”
Numair felt his brow furrow even more deeply. “She’s under some complicated curse you’d like me to alleviate.”
“If only.” Jon released a slow sigh, a rare indulgence.

Summary
“So!” She exhaled, exasperated. “I don’t see why things have to be so complicated between us. Don’t you want to be with me?” He watched her, his gaze searing, but he didn’t make a move to come any closer. He was impossible. One moment, he was lifting her in the air, kissing her silly, and the next he was dredging up these fragile notions of duty and propriety. She’d never cared for any of those things; when she wanted something, she knew it. Clutching her hands in her lap, she lowered her voice. “After all,” she said, watching his expression carefully. “Whatever happened to being very, very bad?”
Or: if The Realms of the Gods had a second epilogue.

Summary
I did not read the 4th book in the series: In the Realm of the Gods, until much later as an adult when I read Tempests & Slaughter (Numair Chronicles book 1)
A long time shipper of Daine and Numair, I was happy to see they do become romantically involved over the course of the book, but, I started to wonder: what would have happened if they instead slowly developed from student/teacher to equals to lovers with the supporting cast of characters beside them.
I have made one critical change from canon: In Wild Magic, Daine gives her age as 15, which Onua’s magic flags as a lie. In MY version, Daine’s birthday is late March. Saying she's 15 instead of 15 next week is enough of a lie to trigger the eyebright. Numair is later revealed in Tempests and Slaughter to be only 11 years older. So we'll treat her as 15, and him as 26 when they meet, otherwise follow Wild Magic, Wolfspeaker and Emperor Mage as canon.
Emperor Mage takes place in the autumn, and this story starts as they return to Tortall in early winter. I have made Numair's birthday early winter, so he's 29 and Daine will be 18 on her next birthday (late March), and the story will follow them over a year.
