“I’m trying to keep you away from a dangerous life. To give you a reason to get out.” “So you’re saying you’re not able to protect me? To keep me safe?” “Of course I can protect you,” I growl out. “I’d put my life on the line to keep you safe. I’d do fucking anything for you, Lux.” “Then I’m not going to say no. I’m not going to say no to being part of this world that you live in.” She wraps her other hand around the back of my neck. “Because a world without you is a world I want no part of. I’m in this with you, Teo. I’m choosing to stay married to you for the rest of my life.”
