“No, we’re not.” She laughed, leaning her head against my shoulder. After a moment, she sighed, her tone turning serious. “I think it’d be perfect.”
“She wasn’t the one, Mercy, but she sacrificed everything for her country.”
“What a legacy to live up to.”
I snorted as I tried to imagine holding a tiny little human in my arms without crushing it.
Mercy began to chuckle, and I frowned. “What?”
“I hope it’s a boy,” she declared, “because I’d hate to be the snotty teenager who breaks her heart with a father like you.”
For the first time in what felt like forever, I felt a genuine smile pulling at my lips. “A dad, huh?”
“I bet you’ll be a real good one, too.”
Threading my fingers through hers, I asked, “Where do we go from here, Mercy Reid?”
“The only way we can,” she replied. “Forward to infinity.”
Rising to my feet, I pulled Mercy up and into my arms, my palm resting on her stomach. I imagined I could feel the little life growing inside her, and for the first time in my entire existence, I believed some good could come out of the darkness.
“I love you, Mercy Reid,” I murmured, lowering my lips to hers. “Forever and always.”
As we kissed, the world waiting for us to conquer it, I didn’t feel it anymore. The monster was gone, and something else was left in its place—love—and I finally understood what Mercy had believed in all along.
There was always hope…even in the darkest of places.
