Next time I walk away, she whispered into his skin, come with me. She let her gaze drift up to his throat, his jaw, his lips. When this is all over, when Osaron is gone and weve saved the world again, and everyone else gets their happily ever after, come with me. Lila, he said, and there was so much sadness in his voice, she suddenly realized she didnt want to hear his answer, didnt want to think of all the ways their story could end, of the chance that none of them would make it out alive, intact. She didnt want to think beyond this boat, this moment, so she kissed him, deeply, and whatever he was going to say, it died on his lips as they met hers.
