Edward straightened up from the table, meeting Isaac\u2019s gaze. \u201cI am attempting to do just that, with this marriage, to you. My lands are under threat, do you understand that? Or are you so caught up in her pretty smile that you don\u2019t see the danger all around? By wedding my daughter to you, I create a link to the Hales. With Derek\u2019s power behind me, I can put a stop to the petty harassment along my borders, and perhaps these lands \u2014 not just mine \u2014 can find something like peace again!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I fell in love with her the first moment I saw her — not because of her looks, but because she was protecting children, willing to sacrifice herself for them. That\u2019s the daughter you missed out on,” he murmured lowly and shook his head, taking a step back from him. “But by all means, I\u2019ll help where I can, and organise a meeting with my brother, if that is of interest to you.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The wedding won’t take place for a month, and the dispersal of the knights participating in the tournament will do enough to protect the lands.<\/p>\n

Go back to her. Make her smile again, and again, and again. I will send for you when I need you.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
