Ultimate Sins (47 page)
Authors: Lora Leigh
“For Kimmy?” Laughter gleamed in her eyes.
“For Kimmy, but even more.” Drawing her to him, his daughter in one arm, soul in the other. “Thank you for bringing me magic.”
Love filled her expression then. It flowed from her, wrapped around him and Kimmy, and warmed them. From the inside out, she warmed everyone she touched.
Slowly, she shook her head. “It took both of us to make the magic, Crowe.”
His lips touched hers, gently, lovingly. The warmth wrapped around them, magic sparked in a child's laughter, and in that moment Crowe realized the ice he'd carried inside him was gone. Not even a chill remained in the deepest corner of his spirit.
His fairy had burned it away, and with the child they created she filled it with warmth, with love and hope.
They hadn't committed the ultimate sin when they loved. They'd given birth to the ultimate joy instead.
