Her words echoed in his mind. I love you, she’d said. She loved him. Hope dawned in his face. Someone loved him, not for what he once was, but loved him as he was now. He bent to kiss her but she raised her head to look with desperation into his eyes. She had to make him understand why she couldn’t stay. “I love you.” She repeated. “I won’t let him hurt you or any of my new friends.” Enrico had never known fear. He knew it now. She would leave him. He knew she would, her sense of loyalty was matched only by his own. If she thought she could protect him by leaving, she would run rather than put his or anyone else’s life in danger. She loved him. The words made his heart sing and at the same time brought him the greatest despair he had known since Katrina had betrayed him. Grace Willows
About This Quote

The poet, William Wordsworth says: "Even though I’ve never really gone anywhere, I suppose that’s what you meant by saying I lived in the world of the imagination. But I don’t know how to make it come alive for me like it does for you. Maybe it’s because I was raised differently than you were. You’re not afraid of people or of things that go bump in the night. You’re just not afraid of anything."
