Leap of Faith by Legion
An excerpt from Leap of Faith:
"You think you could promise me what I need and make it happen,
no matter what I ask for?" he said skeptically.
"I could. I would, if you would give me a promise in return,"
Elder murmured. "What would you give, James? What price is your
heart's desire worth?"
Meeting the empty black of Elder's eyes, Jim said solemnly, "Everything
that's mine to give. For my heart's desire."
"Done!" Elder proclaimed, and it brushed a kiss over Jim's
mouth.
"Everything that's yours to give in exchange for me giving you
your heart's desire."
Not returning the kiss, Jim stared at the thing, letting distrust,
fear, doubt and disbelief fill his expression. "Just like that,
as if you could really make it happen."
"I can, I tell you." Elder ran a possessive hand over Jim's
arm. "I swear it, and I am more bound by an oath than you could
possibly understand."
Looking away from the compelling gaze, Jim stared out at the city,
wishing he could see Blair, wishing he could touch him one more time.
Then he said carefully, "Then I swear that I give you everything
that is mine to give; in return no evil, nor anything or any person
touched by evil, can harm my beloved, Blair Sandburg, for the rest of
his natural life."
