There's a rough sob that escapes her lips at his words. A trembling nod as her eyes open again and she presses a kiss against his lips fervently.
"God is-- the only One that can judge us on this," she murmurs, "And I-- cannot believe that One so good as He would judge us harshly as this world does, for something so pure as our love."
And it is a pure, beautiful, entirely holy love, between the three of them. It's a love that strengthens them all, and, as a result, gives strength to their kingdom, as well. She'd needed his words to remind her, but she knows them well in her heart, at the end of the day.
Still, there's another furrow in her brow as she thinks on it a moment longer, nudges his nose with hers.
"Don't-- tell Elliot, mm? I worry he'll-- try to do something noble, for our honour's sake."
Like leave. Like break his own heart and theirs, and all because he thought it would protect them.
