As it Should Be — Sean Michael

A Windbrothers Collection Set in the sweeping Windbrothers' world, where magic users and their sworn mates find each other through a process of trial and error, these stories, which take place long before the events in Desert, explore the different ways that ba'chi and hi'icha come together to become ki'ita. For every magic user, there is a grounding force to steady him, and neither half of the pair feels whole until he finds his destined lover. Some mates discover each other with relative ease, while others have a harder time uniting with their designated partners, and the world they live in can be accepting, cruel, or even indifferent. From a shape-shifter with a secret to a pair of twins who think they'll never find their lover, Sean Michael gives us a lot to love, just as it should be, in these stories sure to tug at your heart.
