The Bliss Drip
Page 16
His eyes met mine. I could see the uncertainty there, since he wouldn’t let me in his head. He was struggling with who to be after these two lives were combined into him. I wanted to reach out to him, but I was part of what was hurting him.
He continued, “It is time for me to undo what I did to my father and both of Rozalyn’s heavenly parents.”
“It will not be easy,” Ariel warned.
Mac shifted beside me. “Do we even have a clue how to do this?”
“Not yet,” Felix answered.
“I’ll be there for whatever you need.”
“I know. Thank you. Right now, I just need you to take care of Roz. After I figure out how to rescue them, Devina will pay for what she has done to us.”
All of us were silent. We wanted her to pay. We knew how dangerous it might be to pursue it. Sylvia pulled Darby up closer to her and kissed her cheek.
Felix stood and held out his hand for me to take. I was surprised since he had been so distant, but I took his hand and stood up in front of him. He brushed my face with his fingertips before laying his lips against my forehead. Then he pulled my head against his chest and kept it there as he spoke.
“I will be gone for a while to try and figure out how to save them. I also need that time to know what I feel about, well, myself.”
I nodded against his chest.
“Keep her safe, Mac.”
“Of course.”
“Mother will be staying to watch over you and spend some time with Darby.”
He started to step back away, and I reached up and gripped his face. He let me pull him down into a kiss. For a moment, he wrapped his arms around me and molded me into him while his mouth caressed mine. Then his movements slowed, his grip loosened, and he stepped back away from me.
If I had spoken, I would have started crying. He took a moment more to look at my face.
Then Felix left me.
