by Karen Rose
Daisy’s heart cracked, because she knew it was true. “Maybe. But I think she’ll be back. She said she’d talk to you and I don’t think she was lying.”
When Mercy’s taillights disappeared, Gideon turned back to the mountains with a sigh. “I’m going to keep looking,” he said.
“I know.”
“Even if she can’t, I can.”
“Yes, you can.”
“Hell, maybe I’ll keep looking because she can’t.”
Daisy slid her arm around his waist. “I don’t doubt that. Or you. You’ll find Eden. And you’ll make sure they pay for all the people they’ve hurt.”
“And you? What will you be doing while I’m out searching for Eden?”
“I’m going to be with you, helping you. And writing your story for a magazine which I have not yet identified.”
That must have been the right thing to say because a slow smile spread over his face. “And if I tell you that you can’t?”
“Then I’ll argue and then you’ll have to kiss me, but I’ll get what I want in the end anyway. So let’s just cut the arguing and go right to the kissing.”
“Because you’ll get what you want in the end anyway?” he asked, pressing a teasing kiss to her lips.
She laughed. “You learn fast.”
“As long as what you want is me.”
“Yes,” she said simply. “Let’s go home, Gideon.”
