Chapter 46 Forbidden Union

• Kailani wasn’t one to go to the temple on a good day, but she felt the urge to. She wanted to pray for the safekeeping of the prince and the man that owned her heart. Rue told her praying at the temple worked and she took her word for it. The full moon was a week days ago, and it was the happiest she had ever been while shifting. Edward saw it too, and he told her it made him happy as well. She was happy with him, happier than she had ever been, and that scared her.
• It’s been two months since Edward returned to her and it had been a happy tale since then. She knew he would never do a thing to hurt her, but she could feel hurt and pain lay ahead. His departure for the capital a few days ago gave her the time and space to think about what she wanted and he was what she wanted. She didn’t ignore the many reasons that served as barriers to their union and despite Edward stubbornly ignoring them; they existed. She didn’t want to ruin his reputation or relationship with his family, especially his father. She knew she was bad for his reputation. Yes, she wasn’t exactly what someone like him should want, yet he wanted her and she feared how the end might be.
• She loved him and wanted only the best for him and she feared the best might be to leave him and pray he moves on with his life for the longest of time. He had her mark, though. She wanted to leave everything behind but knew how much stubbornness the prince possessed. He’d find her and bring her back to him. She wanted his type of courage, but she didn’t have it, she couldn’t afford it. He had abandoned a lot to be with her and she wanted to do the same, too. She planned on letting go of the parlour and putting Jane in charge of the running. Edward might not like that. He didn’t care about what she did, but she did, and she wanted for once to put him first.
