Chapter 36 Preparations In The Dark Night

• It was there that Selene felt momentary relief upon hearing Max's words. They both knew very well that although it was a fragile and ephemeral truce, it is impossible for her not to be 100% calm in the face of a situation like this. Everything they experienced was inclined towards a life or death situation. She leaned towards him, gently kissing his forehead, allowing her lips to stay there at that moment, playing with each other, like when they were a couple of teenagers who went to the countryside for a walk and climbed into the top of a drink. tree to enjoy a beautiful sunset together and kiss as if it were the last day of their lives.
• She wanted to transmit to Max the strength, serenity and love that she needed so that she could fight and maintain his sanity in the face of his misfortune. The warmth of her tears still remained cool on her skin, reminding him of the magnitude of what was at stake in her life.
• "I love you, Max. And you know that, right?", She said with a voice that trembled as she walked a tightrope of pain and firmness. — I love you more than I can imagine I would ever love anyone. I will do everything in my power so that we can save our children together. But I need you here, with me, to be strong and healthy so we can do this without losing the battle.
