Excerpt:
I
dropped the box in the living room as Nadine walked to the door of her bedroom
and stared at the inside.
“What is it, darling?” I followed
her gaze. The furniture we had found was simple. A brown wood, queen bed and
nightstand, thin mattress, and a dark blue comforter. Nothing else. No
curtains, no rugs, no decorations, no drawer, no dresser—the same as the other
bedrooms.
“It’s so lifeless,” she muttered.
“If the bed was made of metal, I would think we were in a prison.”
A
prison. That was what this was for her. This situation, this place, this war,
the Soul Oath. Her prison.
I
leaned closer to her and kissed the top of her head, not sure what to say. She
turned to me, with suspicion in her pretty eyes, as if she doubted my
intentions. I guess she had no reason not to suspect my intentions. She once
said she was tired of my mixed signals. I was too, but I couldn’t help myself. I tried, with all my might, to stay away
from her, not to touch her, not to hug her, not to kiss her. So far, I was
failing.
“Come on, darling. You love it when
I kiss you.” Teasing came naturally, and she actually reacted the way she
always should react with me: her brows knotted and she dismissed me. I should
have stopped there. I should have walked away and left her be. Instead, I
nudged her arm with my elbow. “What?”
“Nothing,” she said, her tone
indicating it wasn’t really nothing. She sighed and stepped into her bedroom.
“I guess I better ...” She gestured around the room, and I had no idea what she
meant.
Nevertheless,
I went along with it. “Sure. Yeah.
She
closed the door in my face.
