"I know," Malika said as she looked at her husband. He looked so sincere and she had to look like she cared about him.
Jer's declaration of love was no longer surprising because as much as that hadn't been the goal for Malika, she knew that the man was true to her. It was quite an unfortunate turn of events, but it was something that Malika would explore to the fullest.
She didn't care what happened to the man before her, as long as her mistress was okay. As long as Hawi was fine, nothing else would ever matter.
"Let's go, shall we? We can talk about everything else later, please, husband," Malika added and Jer stared at her softly. He had been used to her calling him husband and that was the motivation he needed to get ready for whatever was waiting out there.
Perhaps he was that insanely obsessed with her, or maybe he had seen her in pain and unconscious for weeks and he just wanted what was best for her.
