Every single one of them looked at me and shook their head. "Your mate doesn't have much time left. Cherish what you have." Owen never let me see him fall apart. In front of me, he always wore that calm, unbothered expression, as if everything would be fine. But the bruises under his eyes and the hollowness in his face told the truth. On those quiet nights, I could hear him praying. Desperate. Earnest. Begging anyone who would listen. Then one day, he came back with news I never expected.

“We can use that. They continue to protect you while we continue to investigate in secret.” “And when we don’t need them anymore…” Tara raises her eyebrows. I can’t do it. I can’t face another mass execution. I can’t have more blood on my metaphorical hands. No more deaths on my conscience. Owen, however, doesn’t seem to have that same view. “They should pray that such a time never comes.” That’s what I’m going to pray for, too.

I can barely breathe. Owen straightens slowly, his movements unhurried, deliberate. His gaze lands on me, steady and cold in a way that finally makes sense. So this is it. “So,” he says, calm, almost bored. “You just shove people now?” No one laughs. “That was rude,” Luke adds from behind me. “Real disrespectful.” I try to speak. Nothing comes out. Owen takes a step closer. Not aggressive. Not threatening. “I don’t know who you are, or why you did what you did, but don’t do that again,” he says. “To me. Or to anyone in my circle. We’ll let you go now, but not another time.”

Owen smiled and said, “Good day, Uncle Denzel. Are you well? “ Uncle Denzel smiled broadly and replied, “Good day, Owen. All is well with me. How are you?” Owen smiled and said, “I am well, Uncle. Amanda is coming back today, and I would like to ask for her hand in marriage.” Uncle Denzel beamed and replied, "That’s good news, Son? I give you my blessing. May the Lord bless both of you in your new journey.” Owen thanked him, then they hung up.

"Please wait until the storm is over. Dean is with me and I don't need you getting turned into a sand zombie." "Kaylee, I want you to know that I'm not going to let this kind of behavior slide." Owen's voice vibrated with a quiet rage. I was very glad he was on my side. "Thank you, Owen," I said softly. "I'll call back in a little bit, okay?" I nodded, not caring that he couldn't see me as the line went quiet. I let the phone fall to my lap as I just stared out at the raging storm that would never yield any rain.

Then I rolled off the bed and went on my knees by the side of the bed as my early morning routine demanded. "Dear lord, it's me again. Thank you for waking me and my family this morning, thank you for another shot at improving our lives, this day look upon us and give us our daily bread, amid help those who can't help themselves during this tough times of war. The likes of Blake, dear lord open his eyes...Amen"

He sounded wise. "Thanks man." Owen muttered, he smiled wryly at Alex and Alicia. “Hope you guys are happy… and end up getting married, and having a happy family.” “You too….Owen, our prayer for you.” Alicia smiled bitterly. She could see how sad Owen looked at the beach. Just yesterday he lost his girlfriend on the same beach…less than twenty-four hours! "We have to go back, I'm starving..." Alex stood up and pulled Alicia, Owen didn't answer, the man is still sitting in the same place.

He bowed slightly to them as he clasped his hands together nervously. “Hello, Mr and Mrs Whyte. I am Owen. Your daughter's husband. I'm sorry for not coming sooner, a lot of things have been going on. I'd love to ask for your blessings. I love your daughter so much that I'll give my life for her. We'll get married soon. For real, this time, and I'll give her all of me.” He reached out and took my hand as he smiled at me before turning back to the stones. “I'll protect her with everything I have. I'll do my best to make sure she doesn't cry or feel pain.” He said and I couldn't stop the scoff from escaping my lips.

“I owe you my life, Mr. Winston.” “OB finished the job.” He said the same to Owen. “I have to go and take my wife out.” Owen and Homer followed me outside the study. “You’re reckless.” “I know.” I glared at Homer. “Anything else you want to say?” “Giovanni or I could have died, man. And he’s okay, if not a little shaken up,” Owen said. “I just threw up, assholes.” I snapped. “You did?” Homer was more amused than concerned.
