"If there is anything I could do, what would you wish for, Isla?" Theo asked, his voice low and measured. His mind drifted back to a time long past, to Elena—her voice a haunting echo in the recesses of his mind.

A faint smile touched his lips, bittersweet with the pang of what might have been if Elena were still there.
