The corners of Elysia’s eyes were red. “You have to take care of yourself while we’re gone.”

“Make sure you actually eat.”

The more she talked, the more a sudden, hot sting of tears blurred her vision.

God, she was in so deep with this man.

The thought of being apart so soon, of not being able to see him tonight, actually made her want to cry.

She felt annoyed at herself for being so dramatic. Turning her head away to wipe a tear, she tried to make an excuse to leave. “Come on, let’s go. My parents and the kids are waiting downstairs.”

But Tarquin pulled her back into his arms, holding her tight.

“I’ll miss you every day, every single moment.”

His words warmed her heart. Outwardly, she teased him for being sappy, but inside she thought:

*I’ll miss you too, constantly.*

Lowell was with him.
