“I will return one day, Torin,” Beck promised. “I will return, and I

alone even as he took lovers. He was alone even as he and his brother

Beck squeezed her tight. “I hope you mean that because you

won’t have another. You’re mine, and I won’t ever let you go.”

He pulled her hair back and took her mouth savagely. He needed

against his chest. He loved the warmth of her skin. He loved the trust

she placed in him. It eased his soul. He looked behind her. Cian had

gone pale. He sat back against the headboard. Meg might have

accepted him wholeheartedly, but Cian seemed to be having trouble.

“Ci? Whatever you want to say to me, just say it. It isn’t anything I

haven’t thought about myself.”
