Chapter 79 He Got The Necklace **Ethan’s POV

The maps on my desk were beginning to blur together. Mostly, I was thinking about the war efforts- but sometimes about other matters. Rosalie. The baby. The letter.

I couldnt think about it. I couldnt let my mind go there, not at all...

She had made her request of me, and I needed to honor that

and live my life the way she wished. Except, how could I be happy without her?

I looked at the maps again, concentrating on the new Xs we'd drawn for the new

attacks, trying to come up with a plan. It was late, and most of the others had long gone to bed.

So I was surprised when there was a knock at my door. At first, I

thought perhaps I had imagined it. I looked up, waiting to see if I heard it

again. Instead, the door opened just a bit, and Talon stuck his head in.

We hadn't talked much since he'd told me the truth

He pulled a piece of jewelry out of his pocket and held it out to me.

My eyes were a little unfocused from staring at the maps, so I wasn't sure I was seeing the necklace « But after a moment of staring, I was certain I was seeing it.

I would recognize that piece of jewelry anywhere. It hung

there in the shadows cast by the dim light from the lamp on my desk like a ghost, haunting me from the light and winking at me mockingly. My hands flexed on the desk in front of me. I wanted

to reach out and touch it, but I also didn’t want to. I was afraid my fingers would fly right
