“I wish I hadn’t waited until he was dead to return to Valmont,” Sterling says darkly. “I wish I’d come back to kill him myself.”

“He’d already won,” I say wearily.

“So, they just took her from you?” He runs a hand through his dark hair. “Is that even legal? Did you sign documents?”

“Not exactly,” I admit before plunging into the rest of the story. When I finish, he’s pale. He moves onto the couch next to me and draws me into his arms, tucking my body against his, before kissing my forehead. I let myself cry, openly and freely, for the first time in years. It’s ugly and painful, my sobs wrack my body until my lungs hurt. I’ve told myself not to dwell on the past, because I didn’t think I could survive it. Now, standing on the other side of it, I’m left to wonder if I just gave up.

“Do you think...Did I give up too easily?”

His arms tighten around me, protective and strong, and I dread the first moment I have to spend without their comforting presence, knowing it’s an inevitable fact of life.

“Lucky, you didn’t give up. You never gave up.” He tilts my tear-stained face up to meet his own red eyes. I didn’t realize until this moment that he’d been crying, too. “I’m proud of you, but you don’t have to fight alone anymore. I’m here now, and from this moment forward, we fight together.”
