In the middle of a massive natural stone bridge suspended high above a cavernous canyon beneath the clear, star-filled night sky, two figures sat quietly facing the waterfall.
Aliana had found a comfortable spot in front of her husband, resting against his chest with their feet dangling over the edge of the deep cliff. Gavriel held her securely, one arm draped around her shoulders while the other rested comfortably around her waist.
There was a strange sense of comfort and connection that Aliana felt in this place, though she couldn't quite understand why. Perhaps it stemmed from knowing this was the exact spot where Gavriel's feet had first touched her world. Whatever the reason, the feeling was undeniable.
Gavriel, on the other hand, had remained silent ever since Aliana spoke those words to him.
"Because you must have been quite lovable even as a child."
Those words continued to echo in his mind.
