Chapter 14

Treasure

Treasure knew this was going to be something serious. If it was something she wanted to hear, she wasn't sure. One thing she knew for sure though—this wasn't the best time to be discussing anything other than escape. Holding her breath, she waiting for whatever was coming next.

With a heavy expression on his face, Oszul lowered his head and took a moment. He breathed in and then exhaled, as though he was about to try to lift a massive object by himself. Truthfully, there was obviously a heavy weight he needed to haul. It wasn't physical though. It was to do with his emotions. "Treasure ... it's my uxormea."

Her heart started to flutter. She wondered if here dream could possibly be coming true. But no, they'd been close several other times—very close. It had never lit up before, had it? He'd always been wearing clothes. Except that one time they were trying to keep warm. She had been too out of it to look. They were pressed too closely together. Wouldn't he have known if it had anyway?

"My uxormea is glowing because of you. It has burst forth. That means one thing. One thing only."

"We're fated mates..." she whispered almost without sound. The truth of the matter started to enshroud her. It was worrying, but also exhilarating. So many new possibilities were opening in her imagination. It was a considerable effort to keep her mind from racing off. No, stay in the moment. Stay in this moment. It was only going to happen once.

"Treasure, I love you. I plan to claim you as my true mate, for life. That is ... if you'll have me."

"Oh, Oszul," she said, pausing. She needed to think, but there was no time to think. What if she never saw him again? Could she live with herself if she denied him the knowledge of how she felt about him? It's not like he could ever have another fated mate.

She wanted to say yes. That single word would have felt so good to let out. She almost allowed herself to say it at full volume. Luckily for them all, her Qetesh training had made sure that she kept her voice at barely a whisper. They were so close to each other that the coldness from the cell bars was chilling her face. Her lips surely must have been blue. They felt like they were going to freeze off if she didn't put her mask and goggles back on very soon.

But she didn't have time to tell him. Footsteps approached. Saying anything would have condemned them all for certain. Someone was definitely coming now. She peeked around to find where they were approaching from but couldn't see them yet. That was good though. Treasure had to go without saying anything else to Oszul. That was the most difficult thing she'd ever had to do. It crushed her to leave it like that, but she told herself they would see each other again. We won't leave it at that.
