Tristan leaned his head against mine. “We will do everything we can, my love. Everything in our power.”
We’d already won so much. We’d fought our personal demons to be together—the ones we created in ourselves, such as the inabilities to trust or to love and be loved; and those implanted into our DNA and by our enemies. Our love was strong enough to overcome those obstacles. Good had won over evil.
But is Owen right? Does good always win? And is our love strong enough to overcome all the obstacles still ahead of us? There are so many battles still to fight…for us, for our son, for the Amadis…for all humankind. How do we face it all?
I hadn’t realized my mind was still connected to Tristan’s and I shared these desperate thoughts with him until he responded. I could hear the confidence—almost cockiness—even in his thoughts.
“We fight together, ma lykita, side by side, hand in hand, souls bound as one. The ultimate warrior and the fierce protector.” I looked up at him and he grinned. “Bring it on!”
Then he winked and I smiled through the daze.
Yeah. Who can beat us, right?
It was a question with an answer only God knew…and only time would reveal as our purposes unfolded before us.
