"The next morning, breakfast was served in my room. Gabriel visited with me, in between his meetings. I told him the basic principles of time travel, the first day. The second day, I talked to him about the good and the bad things about time travel. Gabriel decided that it was something that he didn't want to pursue, so he never asked me about it again."
"The next three days, I told him about my life, your life, and why I wanted to find you. He told me that he was going to have to talk to the council and see what they suggest. Two, of the five council members, were not going to be back until my sixth morning as a guest. He took me into the council meeting the day that they arrived. I explained everything to the council, which I had explained to Gabriel already."

"We woke up just before sunrise. There were around a thousand Knights prepared to march against Zarius. A third of them were on horses. Just to see this with my own eyes was very intimidating. I don't even know if I could express it to you properly. Gabriel rode up to me with a black mare in tow. He gave me the horse as a gift and he wished me well. That was the last time that I saw him." He sounded sad, like he had become friends with the King. He heaves a depressed sigh. "For such a big army, it didn't take long for everyone to line up ready to leave. Breakfast was eaten on the road, which was pretty nasty. It took me about thirty minutes before I was able to sit comfortably in the saddle. I could feel the ground tremble beneath me causing my anxiety to rise. They were heading into war. In the back with me were the seven men that were going to be my

"We rested in a grove nearby and we could hear Gabriel's Knights get closer. Leonard was a quiet Knight so when he started singing, melancholy tunes, we knew something was wrong. I looked at him and his shirt was soaked in blood and his breathing was labored. I tried to help him but he kept shoving me away. I stopped trying when he pulled his dagger out on me. Everyone was trying to convince him to calm down and let me look but he just kept saying that it was too late.""The next morning we woke up and he had died. He left two letters, one for his parents and one for us. We could barely read it because he was shaking pretty bad. He apologized because he was playing with the mercenary and got struck in his side. He was too embarrassed to tell us and, in the end, it cost his life. He requested that we burn him instead of sending him back to his parents.&

"Charlie, Bernie, and Sheila were already there waiting for us. Sheila was worried that I would never come back because I was gone for so long. When we came through Bernie and Charlie grabbed you. I was still in shock when I first got back. I was glad to be home but after what I had seen, and what I saw happen to you, I couldn't seem to be able to talk to Sheila. You were walking around like you had no life left and then you collapsed. Charlie and Bernie rushed you to the hospital, but when they realized that you shouldn't have existed, they panicked and took you downstairs to the hospital basement.""I answered the general questions of my well-being when Sheila asked and then checked the machine. I didn't come back with your father, and needed to rebuild a portable, but the machine was broke

When I don’t answer, Derek storms out of the room with a guard following behind him. ‘m torn between going after him and staying. I can’t imagine what it would be like to be in his shoes.

The next morning, the Doctor wakes us up. I notice the black eye on Derek's face. He doesn’t seem to mind. He smiles at me gently. Derek traces his finger around the outline of my face. "I'm sorry I failed at protecting you. If I hadn't been so busy sulking we wouldn't have gotten separated." "Derek don't..." "Shhh....no don't. If I had thought about my actions, we would have been linked together and never been separated. Now, you have a black eye on your beautiful face and you've already been through enough." "Not to interrupt but I need to check him out and Meril is wanting to see you." the doctor says.

Meril's house is about thirty minutes away. The house is a little farther north than I care for and, even though it is only fall, it’s freezing. The house itself is too big, for a couple with no children. It’s more like a mansion. I didn't think that doctors made that kind of money. It has ten bedrooms, two kitchens, seven full bathrooms, three half bathrooms, a large dining room, a small dining room, a theater room, two living rooms, a game room, a six car garage, a five in a half acre back yard with a heated pool. Every room has a walk in closet and a bathroom. The closets have shoe organizers and the attic is the length of the house. The attic is tall enough that Meril has made it into a workroom. At first, we are so

Before we are finished, we are both panting and sweaty. He took me to heights that I had never been before. I don’t know if it is because of the mutual feelings, or if he seemed to improve since the last time, but that was the best I’ve ever felt. I lay in his arms, trying to control my breathing, with a huge grin on my face while Derek is attempting to stay awake. The phone is ringing and, a few moments later, Liz knocks on the door. I groan internally. I do not want to move from this high. "Alayna, Meril is on the phone. Are you awake?" Derek and I smile at each other before I unwillingly answer.
