“Can you sense me now?” He pushed affection and tenderness into her mind.
“Oh yeah. I missed this. You have no idea how much.”

“Because you look exhausted.”
She smiled, then snuggled closer, resting her head on his shoulder. “I’ll sleep, gladly, but there’s so much I need to tell you. Chandar and I have been questioning my father. We’ve learned all sorts of things about the Evonti. Jakkin finally released Kelsey from the Fearless, but she still seems bothered by something. Sedrik is on a quest to—”

“Anything, just speak the words.”

He tilted her face up for a long, tender kiss, then whispered against her lips. “I will do everything in my power never to frighten you again. I want only your happiness, and I will work tirelessly toward that end.”
She smiled, kissed him again, then sleepily closed her eyes.
