Twenty Six

I grab my dagger off the ground and hide it away.

"Lippy!"

I shifted my head until I was pulled into an embrace by Dominic. His arms wrap around my waist and his head to my neck. After being stunned by this sudden intimacy, Dominic pulls back and cups my face.

"Are you okay?" He checks my face to see any scratches or bruises.

I smile softly and take his hands off my face as I hold them. "I'm fine. See," I twirl around. "Sure, I got hit here and there, but I'm perfectly fine. Don't worry."

Dominic pulled on that face as it made me smile at how worried he was for me. I felt his emotions rising through the link that I almost lost focus while fighting Illim.

"Lippy?"

I drop my smile as Ingrid, and the others approach me. I back away from Dominic, and I can see that the queens felt my anxiety about dying. I know I already accepted my faith once they all saw the demon magic I used. I'm not ready to die again.

"Lippy, we..." Ingrid looks back. "We, including my husband, wanted to thank you."
