A Whisper in the Wind
“Sitting up, he listened for a moment. It was Elayna, sobbing as though her heart would break, the sound muffled beneath her sleeping robes.
Rolling out of his blankets, he knelt beside her. “Elayna, what’s wrong?”
“I’m so unhappy,” she wailed, and a fresh flood of tears washed down her cheeks.
With a sigh, Michael gathered her into his arms. With gentle hands he stroked her back, murmuring to her, telling her he understood. But did he? What kind of man was he, to keep a woman agains...t her will? Of course she was unhappy. If he had any decency at all, he would take her home.
And yet, he did not want to let her go. He remembered lying in the bottom of the ravine, badly wounded and on the verge of unconsciousness, remembered seeing a woman walking toward him through a white world, and a voice whispering in his ear, She is waiting, waiting for you.
The woman had been Elayna.MoreLess
