Terra pushes her hand into my vest pocket and wraps her warm hand around mine. A soft smile spreads over my lips. She’s still so human. “I am in no need of comfort. The darkness holds me.” She doesn’t retreat and only walks closer to my side. “Shut up. If I’m offering comfort, just accept it,” she says with that cute attitude of hers. I want to shut my eyes and be in her presence for a while. Perhaps once the war has ended I’ll have that little amount of peace. Should we be so lucky.
