You own my heart.
I just have three words to say to finish off this story.
Danger sings.
I just have three words to say to finish off this story.
Effa repeats, almost overlapping him in harmony but not quite, and it’s beautiful.
I love you.
My heart beats for you and only you.
This is how our story ends.
Like a lunar eclipse…
You own my heart.
You own my heart.
You own…
my heart.
I know now that Danger couldn’t express his feelings to me directly, so he chose to do so through the lyrics of a song.
And I dared to tell him back then he wasn’t writing it about me.
No wonder he seemed hesitant about me hearing the song.
As they bring their performance to a close, I feel like I’ve finally found my missing puzzle piece.
Danger is the part of me that’s always been missing.
And right now, I know he’s the best part of me.
Chapter Thirty-Two
DANGER
Six Months Later
My voice is improving, only getting better and better. I’ve continued with the exercises Sarah instructed me to do because the last thing we need is a recurrence or me straining my vocal cords again.
As our world tour draws to an end, we have returned to Australia. Our fame reached unprecedented heights, and the collaborative song climbed the charts.
“Lunar Eclipse” was a smash hit.
It went triple platinum in seven countries, sending Recoil into superstardom and pulling Luminous with them. I never thought we would get this far, and I’ve done it all because Lunar believed in me.
She showed me who I truly am and who I could be, and it’s a man I’m now proud of.
Our last stop is Adelaide before we head back to America. Lunar now has all the necessary paperwork to remain in America for an extended period. It wasn’t easy, but she got there in the end with the help of Techie, of course.
The most challenging part of it all is saying goodbye to Luke. He’s been so incredibly good to us, but he’s needed here in Australia and is staying back to be with Luminous and help them pursue their careers.
Since we’re back in Adelaide, and I know Lunar’s missed her boys, I want to see if we can catch up with Techie and the guys at their new club in Aldinga. I want to arrange a visit so she can see them before we leave for America.
