"Why didn't you tell me?"

I shrugged against him.

"I had no idea you were so worried about your powers. You've been doing so good."

I looked back at him at first confused, and then realized I hadn't locked down my thoughts earlier. I had been getting good at shutting him out of my thoughts. I left enough that I didn't think he fully realized. It felt so wrong to do it, and I was constantly biting back the guilt, but I didn't want him to know how weak I really was. Now knowing that I could kill him with one screw up had me so scared I couldn't keep that wall up between us.

"It's going to be okay. You're going to be fine. You can do this. I know you can. You are not weak. You are the strongest woman I know. Not to mention the fastest."

He pulled me back, forcing me to look up at him as he smiled down with love shining through his

eyes.

"I meant it when I told you I never want to live without you. We don't know for sure that our bond is strong enough to kill the other if anything happens to one of us, but I know for me, I would want to die regardless, because I couldn't stand living in a world where you didn't exist."

"Stop saying things like that. It's not helping, Kyle. I don't want you to die. I certainly don't want to be responsible for that. And I don't want to die, but I don't want to kill anyone either, not even Christine Canine, as obnoxious as she is and as much as she annoys me. I hate being put in this position, but I promise you I won't give up. I know she will fight to the death and I will be forced to do the same. I just hate it. All of it."

He soothed me, stroking my back and kissing me all over. As he made his way to my mouth I remembered what his dad had said.

You promised him. And if there's any chance at all that the bond isn't fully sealed, then it needs to
