He bent to kiss her but she raised her head to look with desperation into his eyes. She had to make him understand why she couldn’t stay. “I love you.” She repeated. “I won’t let him hurt you or any of my new friends.” Enrico had never known fear. He knew it now. She would leave him. He knew she would, her sense of loyalty was matched only by his own.

The words made his heart sing and at the same time brought him the greatest despair he had known since Katrina had betrayed him.”

Everything seemed to change from one moment to the next- suddenly he became the most important thing in the world to me.”
