Please come back

Killian put Lyra on the ground as soon as they reached the rose garden.

Lyra breathed in the fresh fragrance of roses with a gentle smile on her face.

Killian's heart palpitated as he continued watching his mate's beautiful face. She was destined to be only his if not for the prophecy. It was really unfair.....why must he tolerate this?

Lyra turned to him and held his hand, "Let us take a stroll together"

He came out of his thoughts hearing her voice. He darted his eyes at their intertwined hands and whispered "My treasure...."

"Hmm?" She looked at him in confusion, "What did you say?"

Killian gazed at her with love and desperation, "You are my treasure, My soulmate, and my everything" So, please.....Please love me and not that Blake, he added in his mind but didn't say it out loud for her to hear.

Lyra blinked her eyes and a blush crept to her face. She was shaken by his sudden confession and didn't know what to reply. Still, in confusion, she replied, "I love you too"
