"What are you thinking?" she asked softly, curiosity coloring her tone.
Marcus's hand came up to cup her face, his thumb gently caressing her cheek. "I'm thinking about how close I came to losing you forever," he admitted, his voice thick with emotion. "And... there's something I need to tell you, something you might not remember."
