“If I could take your place, I would.” His lips pressed against mine in one of the most emotional, intense kisses I’d ever experienced, a kiss rooted in love but wracked with the pain of loss.
Blood pounded in my head, and anger consumed me. I didn’t want things to end that way, to be torn from my loved ones in a forced farewell. They wouldn’t even let Rachel see me off. Once again, I hated that I had absolutely no control over my own life. I couldn’t even say goodbye on my own terms.
“Time to go,” a soldier said, roughly leading me away.
Brett shoved the soldier aside and grabbed me by the arms. “I love you, Sky.”
I gazed into his gorgeous eyes. “I love you too.”
“You’ll always be with me, no matter where I go, no matter what I do, and I’ll be up there sooner than you think. Stay strong, Sky, and never give up.”
Leaving Brett was unimaginably devastating and tragic. I was trying to get over the loss of Christopher, and I needed Brett by my side; only he could really understand my pain, and we desperately needed each other.
We sat through the long ceremony, the diamonds were picked, and then I was led into a clear chute. I was instructed to cross my hands over my chest. The glass door slowly closed, and before I could even lock onto Brett’s gaze once more, there was a hiss, and I was hurtled up into the air.
