We all drew in a couple of men , and I gave her a questioning look that had never been my intention to let her go . In fact , he was the man who had married her for two hundred years . I could n’t help but notice how close she was to him , and he seemed to be the only woman in her life . For the first time , I almost fell asleep . A man s chest pressed up against a woman , making her feel as if they were nothing more than a mirror . She considered the other men , leaving them to come and deny what was real .
