Blood of Souls

The next thing she knows, the sword is gone, and in its place ... a young man named Theodotus.<br><br>Theo claims to know Quin, but when she asks Quin the whole story, what unfolds is out of this world.

Chapter 12

Quin sighed and bowed his head. “That’s not going to make losing you a second time any easier.”

“Perhaps not. But we know how precious it is now. We’ll make the most of it. This time, you’ll know we haven’t been deprived of the life we wanted together.”

“And after?”

“Why must we consider that now? If you dwell on that, you’ll spoil what we might have.” Theo caressed Quin’s jaw in small, gentle strokes. “Annie would tell you to stop being so melodramatic. That always seemed to snap you out of your spells when I saw them.”

Quin sighed. “She knows me better than I know myself sometimes.”

“So you should listen to her. From what I can see, she is the best thing that has happened to you in a very long time.”

She was. So much so that he’d imagined her being around as long as he’d ever imagined Theo. Now he had both of them.

Both of them. How was he supposed to choose?
