***
Two weeks later, in the wee hours before dawn, Max slid from bed.
Savina murmured something in her sleep and shifted, then curled herself around an extra pillow and settled back into whatever dreams she’d been pursuing.
He resisted the urge to touch her, for fear she’d awaken and he would lose the courage to do what he had to do. There would be time to touch her, make love to her, laugh and learn to love again in the days to come.
But first…
He left the bedroom, and padded silently through the warren of halls in the Consilium. His home.
Moments later, he settled himself at the desk in Wayren’s study. It seemed a fitting location in which to do this.
The sheet of paper blazed at him, taunting him with its white blankness. The pencil seemed foreign in his hand. He stared down at it for a very long time before he began to write. It began slowly, but soon the scrawl came more easily, the words flowed, and he felt liberated. When he was finished, he looked down at what he’d written and nodded.
It was a start. He folded the paper so the top line showed, and left it on Wayren’s desk. She’d know what to do with the letter that began:
My dearest Macey…
The End
