Chapter Thirteen

In the black hours of the night, Lance woke. He was dimly aware that he was in a bad way. The fever was taking a steep toll on his body, and he could sense the line separating life from death hovering before him like a thin veil.

He didn’t fear death. He knew the Goddess would welcome him to the other side and that once his body failed the pain would end—a peaceful thought.

Lance had come close to dying before and had always pulled himself back from the brink with grim determination, but this time, when the Goddess held out Her hand and offered to end his suffering, it was easier to turn away. Because someone already held his hand and wept over him.

Lance fought his way back up to consciousness and saw Sara sitting at his bedside. “Don’t cry,” he croaked. He wanted to say more, to tell her what it meant to have her there with him, but his throat was too dry. He squeezed her hand.

Exhausted, he closed his eyes again.
