Oh. Ulla wasn't expecting that, despite the two years they've spent together. He'd been after her to want something besides revenge, something to hold onto once she achieves that, but it seemed impossible to think past that until it was done. She couldn't picture anything.

She can picture this.

"I don't want to lose you either," Ulla says fervently, voice going slightly hoarse. "And there's nothing holding me there once I've dealt with Signy and Roffe."

She's saying yes. But she needs to get the words out. This is worth stating clearly. "I'll go with you."

Her arms tighten around him and she buries her face against the side of Warren's neck. It's terrifying. It feels like standing on a precipice, looking down at the rocks below, and leaping anyway. He can't be her whole world. She had that once, and it nearly destroyed her. But he can be part of it. She wants to keep him in her life so badly it aches.
