"I heard you," he said. "I could feel you beside me, and I knew you were in danger."
Purilla raised her face to look at him in a puzzled manner and he said very softly:

As he spoke he pulled her nearer still.

His lips became more possessive, more insistent, and he knew Purilla responded not only with her body, but with her heart and soul.
"I love you!" he said. "And I will love you from now until eternity, and perhaps in a million lives that will come after this one."
