Marcia
Marcia did not remember leaving Marcus's arms. Nor did she remember moving around the desk, but she found herself wrapped in the King's arms holding on for dear life. Her fingers dug into his back as she fought to keep the tears at bay.
She had a family that wanted her, that had always wanted her. The thought kept swirling around in her mind as she held onto the King. She knew that she should move so they could keep talking but she was afraid of losing what she had just found. Through her link with Marcus, she felt his joy and worry.
Not wanting to upset her mate she slowly pulled back with a smile and returned to her previous seat. Every step was hard. Yes she was going to the man she loved but it felt like she was abandoning her family.
