He pulls on my sleeve to reveal my wrist and the ink on it. The symbol I never want to forget. I swallow, feeling all tender inside, because he sees all of me, and knows me so well. We might not have spent that much time together, but we’ve been tested and stood beside each other in circumstances regular people never have to deal with.

What I saw inside of Heartbreak still haunts my dreams, but whenever I wake up, Kyran is there for me, protecting me, so with each passing night I feel safer. I became stronger that day, and even though I dread the time the beast comes back, I know I’ll stand alongside Kyran, ready to aid him in any way he needs.

“It also stands for being the master of my own destiny.” I whisper and give him a kiss on the cheek. “It’s only fitting that you have it too. Whenever we’re apart, you will be able to look down on it and remember I’m yours.”

Kyran smirks and brings my hand to his lips. “Darling, I never want to be apart from you. Not for more than a few hours.”

I laugh and grab a burger. “How are you both so sweet and so deadly?”

I almost choke on my food laughing, but then give a serious glance down his body. “You already have the tool for that.”
