Sara and the Conqueror
"I love you. I didn’t know I was capable of it—of this kind of ache—until I thought you were gone. I’m not here to take a prisoner. I’m here for you."
I had swallowed hard, the words of a reply forming on the tip of my parched tongue, but I never got to speak them. All hell broke loose the moment Tristan’s shadow darkened the cell. The fight that followed was nothing short of primal. Rune was a raging storm, a beast of pure, focused carnage. I had honestly feared he would kill Tristan right there on the cold stone floor, but he stopped the moment the thundering footsteps of the guards signaled his window of escape was closing.
