Chapter 113

• The Ceremony
• [Rosalynd]
• By the time Gideon and I finally parted, there was no question in my mind about how he feels about me, nor how I feel about him. As our bodies connected in every possible way, our souls blended, we could see clearly into one another, reading the surface of our hearts. It was an experience far more intimate than any I have experienced so far with any of my lovers, and will likely always be that way between us. We still have a long way to go in our relationship moving forward, but this afternoon we made a connection, a true connection.
