    Summary

    Alistair's meeting with Goldanna did not go as intended, and he tries to work through his issues with Elissa.

     

    There were several long moments where he tried to wrangle the maelstrom in his head into concrete phrases, and not just inane banter about cheese or lampposts or other nonsense. Even he knew that some things were too important to joke about. “I want to finally feel like I have some control.” He couldn't hold her gaze – it was too raw, too real, too much. “I need to know I’m not worthless,” he whispered.

    “You’ve never been worthless,” she said with a surprising amount of fervor. “I’ll always need you with me.” She stretched up on her toes for a kiss, but she didn’t close the final distance between them. “And if you want control, you can have it with me.”
