Extra Special - Part 4

RETH

Reth had known being in this place would be a challenge for Elia, and when she first realized where they were and the fear clanged into her scent, he wondered if he'd made the wrong choice using this place today.

But before that day this had always been one of his favorite spots to be in the quiet and away from others. He wanted to share that experience with her.

As they held each other and looked out over the view he could feel her beginning to relax. Then he cupped her face, stroking her cheeks with his thumbs and looked deep into her eyes.

"Elia, Love, I know this is a difficult place to be. But I wanted to come here and give it a new memory. I feel like we're finally at peace and… I want us to be able to enjoy—"

"Reth?" she whispered.

"Yes?"

"Shut up and kiss me. Please. I don't need convincing. I want to take our lives back too."
