The life she had settled into here was a good one, but the storm inside her would never die down completely.
If there was a time for that conversation, this wasn't it. She smiled faintly again, half-hidden against his shoulder. "It does," she agreed. That was just incontrovertible fact. "For me, too."
She nestled a little into him, focused on the now-steadier beat of his heart. "Do I get a fact now?"
