Cain had never felt the sweet feeling of daydreaming more than he had when he touched her skin. It was a dizzy sensation of a world spinning around him, almost enough to make him nauseous. When tears began to pour from her eyes, his heart throbbed in envy for those tears. How is it that death never made him bat an eye but his touch brought such beautiful tears to an ethereal beauty like her? He had to know.
Now here he was, kissing her in the gorgeous scenery of the forest. He wanted to hold her, kiss her, and tell her how much he loved her. He thought he would faint if he told her that she fell from the sky. He wasn't sure what he would do without Riff's arms to hold him up and he certainly wasn't going to make Merridianna carry him. His heart hurt to think about Riff.
So he phrased his words right and expressed his love for her without saying he loved her. If he said those three words something would end. She would end. It's something he learned when he was younger. Even now, as he lies next to her in the folly near his mansion, he can't tell her he loves her.
Cain told her that he would find her in a garden of flowers. That he would find her no matter what. He found that flower but it wilted and he still loved it. She said she wished she could have met him while she was alive. Cain was violently woken up from his dream and thrown into hellish reality.
