Chapter 45

- The words slipped from my lips before I could second-guess myself. My voice was quiet, barely a whisper, but it was enough. Lucian stilled, the air around us thickening with anticipation. He shut his oak door and turned to face me fully, his sharp eyes scanning mine with a look that both calmed and unnerved me.
