Aelins pov

I gathered my fire and pushed everything at Maeve, everything, for the harm she did to my friends, to my husband, to me, my child, everything she did that harmed my court was punished by my fire.

By the time i stopped, Rowan, my Husband, my Mate, was holding me as i slid to the ground. At that point, Maeve was nothing but ashes that had blown away into dust. I didnt know what to do. But i began to sob into Rowan's shoulder, he held me, keeping me safe from anything else that ment harm to me and our child.

I looked up at Rowan and saw him looking down at me. Shock still on his face. "Y....you're......" he wasnt able to finish his sentence, but i nodded, with a teary smile, he could sence the child growing within me,"yes, i am." Rowan tightened his told on me a little, "I.. Im not going to let what happened to Lyria happen to you. Never again." He said with tears of joy and sadness, and.....and fear of loss in his eyes. "Never again." I repeated, and kissed him.
