She concluded to thunderous applause and I could barely contain my own appreciation.”

He had dark brown hair which skimmed his shoulders, a short-haired beard around his lips and chin, and gorgeous greenish-blue eyes that reminded her of the sea. There was something dangerously wicked about the look of his face, and she half expected him to yell for his men to batten down the hatches or swab the deck.”

That is the balance, but their darkness is beginning to seep into our world. That is what you’re feeling.”
