My pulse pounded in my ears. “Who?”
“You know who.”
I knew who.
“He’s her brother,” Grey continued.

The air felt tight in my lungs. “Is he going alone?”
Please say he’s going alone.I had no right to wish that when thirty seconds ago, I’d wanted another man’s mouth on mine, a man who, for all intents and purposes, was my husband.
“I don’t know.”
“I thought you knew everything.”
Grey chuckled. “I don’t know that.” He dropped his hands from my face and sat down beside me on the bed. “But if you need me… if you find it’s too much for you… I won’t be far away.”
Silence stretched across time and space. A storm of emotions wrapped around me, threatening to swallow me whole. Fear. Anticipation.Hope.
He was going to be there.
I was going to see Lincoln.
