I wasn’t sure what kind of games Nate was playing, but my mind had become focused on killing him for forcing me to live through my loss again. Suddenly, the pain was gone. My mind told me that I hadn’t taken but a step from the bathroom, but I found myself seated on the end of the hotel bed, the robe draped around my waist.

The numbness I'd almost allowed to carry me away in the Sidhe cavern offered continual comfort, taking the sharpness from my emotions and, for now, I permitted such intrusion, such softening of my terrible pain. And my egos, they agreed with me, still and dull themselves, resting, sleeping, burying themselves in the dark quiet numbness offered. I could still sense them there, knew I wasn't alone. They would never allow me to feel abandoned, not now. But their grief was almost as comforting as the numb, knowing how much they missed Liam, S

I shrugged. Well maybe, it is due to the fact that I realized I am no longer hurting every time Steffano will stab me with his hurtful words or will beat me to death. It is no longer working for me.
