Capítulo 140: Oath to Kill

It seemed the world as she had known it no longer existed, replaced by a starry landscape of sweetness, beauty, passion, and serenity. As she began to spiral downward, she had the feeling she had captured a tiny particle of that world and that she would never lose it.

Then she felt Royce's hard arms around her, pulling her against his long, hard-muscled length, and the fine sheen of perspiration that covered his body mingled with that of her own. It was in those last precious moments of closeness that she knew Those seconds that she held him and he held her When the intimacy of what they had shared still clung like a fragrant perfume. She loved him. There was no more denying it. There was no way to avoid the truth. And though the knowledge terrified her, it also set her free. Whatever happened, whatever path in life she followed, nothing could destroy this memory she had captured of what it felt like to love.
