Page 159 of The Valiant Knight
“In it, I found Ceit’s grave, and then I was lured to the cliff. Something shoved me off, and I was going to fall to my death.”
He couldn’t believe it.
What the hell was going on?
He had the same dream.
Continuing, she caught him off guard even more.
“In the dream, you saved me, and were my valiant knight. Your last name.”
Oh, holy shit.
“Gabby, I have to tell you something,” he admitted. “Please don’t freak out.”
Honestly, she wasn’t sure what she would freak out about, but she let him tell her.
“I had a similar dream last night. No matter how many times I woke up, it was me saving you from that cliff. You told me you were my wife, and to protect you.”
Oh.
Boy.
When she didn’t speak, he was nervous she was going to ditch him and run for a higher ground, where there was sanity.
Only, she didn’t.
“Finn, I’m beginning to believe that something wants to hurt me,” she said, getting serious.
FAST.
Yeah, well, he was thinking the same thing. He had been since the bookcase fell nearly crushing her.
“Something shoved me, and I almost fell into that crypt, and then being pulled down in the water, and now the bookshelf. I think it’s gunning for me.”
While he didn’t believe in ghosts before, he was believing in them now.
And he was worried.
“This feels like I’m the target because whoever hurt Ceit doesn’t like women. I think I’m in danger.”
His panic levels went through the roof. He was thinking about how he’d just cum in her, and possibly made a life, and now, something wanted to take hers.
Oh.
Fuck.
No.
Not on his watch.
Not only did they have to figure this out, but he had to ensure she was safe.
“I’m going to say something, and don’t take it wrong,” he said.
“What?”
He went there.
