Tears welled up in Jamie’s eyes as he recalled the sight of her brokenness, how she had opened up and shared her deepest scars with him. Her once vibrant green eyes had lost their spark ever since her return. The thought of her suffering tore at his heart, and he wished with all his might to erase the nightmares and pain from her memory, to shield her from any harm that might befall her. He longed to be her rock, her comfort, to bring back the light that had dimmed in her eyes.
