Ravyn was left stunned. She had an idea who it was. There was only one man who would have done such a thing. She didn’t have to wait long for confirmation. Azreal stood before her with a satisfied look on his face.
“What did you do with Preston?” she asked furious.
“I got rid of him.” he replied without emotion.
“Why?”
“I needed to make sure he was out of your life…our lives.”
“I was getting ready to tell him about us.” she said not looking at him.
Azreal suddenly felt a pang of guilt. He watched as his beloved Ravyn fumed. He never meant to hurt her, he just was unsure that she would do as she said.
He took her into his arms. She fought him for a few minutes before collapsing. He held onto her so she wouldn’t fall to the floor. He picked her up and carried her to the couch. He sat down with her on his lap. He propped her head on his chest. He held her close to him, cradling her to him.
Ravyn opened her eyes. She looked into his golden eyes. She strangely found comfort there even after what he had done. She caressed his cheek with her hand. Azreal leaned down and kissed her with all the passion he held in his heart. She gladly returned the kiss.
“I will never understand your jealousy, but it is something I have always accepted. I will always be at your side now as I was then.” she said ending the kiss.
“I’m sorry, but it killed me to see you in the arms of another man. I promise to work on my jealousy and some of my other flaws.” he said with some sadness in his eyes.
“In my eyes you have no flaws.”
