Chapter 1.
He held her in his arms, comforting her as best as he could. After everything that had happened to them, she trusted him again. Like it was before that awful night early on in their marriage. She had left him soon after she had found out his terrible secret and he had let her go. She was too beautiful and pure to be caught up with the likes of him anyway.
Later, Dragaunus had come and he had used his skills for the benefit of the people of Puckworld and was sought out by the leader of the Resistance, Canard. He knew that Canard wanting him was no laughing matter, but he also knew that if Canard wanted him badly enough he'd go with some of his demands. He explained that he wanted her out of where ever she was and safe within the Resistance's strong hold. To this Canard had agreed readily. Apparently he had been expecting some sort of bargaining. They went after her, and found her in the safety of an underground shelter. Canard was held spellbound, much like he was, even now, she was so beautiful. Even now, amid the devastation and destruction of Puckworld nothing could ever have matched Thea Swanson's grace or beauty. They had gotten her out and taken her deep into The Resistance's strong hold, just as he had wanted. However, something happened that he had not foreseen. Canard had fallen in love with her. Before Canard had gone to find Wildwing, he had asked Thea to marry him. Unbeknownst to Canard, he was standing just outside the door. He had heard everything, including Thea's happy, excited reply. His heart had broken at that moment. He knew that Thea no longer wanted him in her life, but he still loved her and hoped with all his might that she still loved him.
A week later, a band of rebels unaffiliated with The Resistance were captured and Canard, with a heavy heart sent Thea and her team on a rescue mission. They never returned. They had been captured by the Saurians and even though Canard was devastated, he was even more so. They had not found Thea's body, unlike the others, she had most likely been captured. When the team (Canard; Wildwing; Grin; Tanya; Mallory and Duke) had gone into The Master Tower, he had been on a quest to save her. He had hoped, but when The Tower was destroyed the hope he had faded. When they had come to this accursed planet through the dimisional gateway, he knew that there was no way, even if she had escaped, that he'd ever make it back in time to say he was sorry for all the lies he had told her.
Then, suddenly she was there and she was smiling at him. She forgave him and he pressed her lithe body against his. Swearing to her and to what ever god was listening that he'd never lie to her again and that he'd never let heer go.
The alarm clock sounded close to his ear, startling him out of his somewhat peaceful dream. He threw it across the room and cursed at it. He rolled over, unable to sleep, but lying there anyway. Huge tears rolled down his cheeks as he remembered the vividness of the dream he had just had and how much he wanted his pretty "Goddess" as he had called her when they had been married.
