บท 726: Chapter 726: New Home

The Sidhe cavern welcomed us with a sigh of power, embracing me as though understanding we were now one, Liam and I. It was odd to be suddenly in the cool dimness, a vast change from the chattering noise and laughter of the back yard.

Liam didn't seem to notice, sweeping me into his arms, carrying me across the threshold of his room, setting me gently down on the bed before closing the door. I felt the wards part, the touch of Galleytrot's power as he arrived, settling in to guard us. We'd already discussed with him our desire to have our first night alone, without interruption.

I knew the big hound would do everything he could to give us our privacy.

Liam stood looking at me, wonder and a hint of shyness in his face.

Seriously? I stood, went to him as he ran his fingers through his hair, blushing again.

"I love you, Syd." His hands shook as he stroked the veil back from my shoulders.
