After all their years together, he didn't trust that she would do what she had to in order for them to be together.
He noticed something … missing the night before, soon after he left her.

Even after you rejected me, he replied.
It was just after dawn, and the fortress was silent.
He felt good after the night with his mate, and it was too nice outside to take a portal when he had the energy to walk.
After a moment, he responded to Darkyn.
He didn't pity her, even after their relationship.
It was worse than the morning after he slept with human-Deidre and awoke to discover whom he spent the night with.
After a moment, a form emerged from the black portal.
Deidre gasped, understanding now how Darkyn planned on ensuring his mate didn't go anywhere, even after she won their deal.
No one could love her after all she'd done!
She didn't know how he could love her still after all she'd done or why he was willing to try to make things work.

Silently, he strode down the hallway after the figure he saw.

After he left, she turned the heat down and wrote a note to Jonathan.
After counting to ten and taking two deep breaths, she lifted her head and met his troubled gaze.
She stared after him as he drove away, wondering if he would be home for supper – or if he was going to eat alone.
After all, he had accused her of having an affair with Josh.
After he left the room, the situation with Lori stayed on her mind.
After that, neither of them would discuss the matter further with her.
After a long and fulfilling kiss, she laid her head on his chest and hugged him.
You said he knew you planned to leave after the baby was born.
It was hard to tell whether she would go through with contesting the will, or if she even could after so long.
She reached into the cage and, after several foiled attempts, managed to capture one of the little bunnies.
After lunch, Mums arrived to get Destiny.
After Mums left, Carmen and Alex headed for the barn again.
After several more grabs, he finally caught her arm.
After asking if there were any more questions, he turned and left the room.
The nurse arrived after a few minutes and led her in to see Alex.
Only after both Destiny and Jonathan fell asleep did Carmen take her shower and go to bed.
Long after she crawled into bed, she lay awake, thinking about Alex.
One night after chores, Carmen, Jonathan and Destiny were eating supper when Brutus started barking.
But if he does some more freelance work after I told you what happened, you will be responsible.
After a while Lori came back in and said she was under arrest.
But surely he knew by now that the police were after him.
Still, she needed to be careful doing the chores – especially after dark.
But after a few more attempts at rousing him, she was convinced that the frown was purely coincidence.
After explaining the situation and giving her address, she turned down the road toward the nearest public area – a service station 2 miles away.
Early the next morning after taking Jonathan to school, she went back to the house and took care of the animals.
After a while she stopped reading, staring at a picture.
He had certainly shown patience for her recovery after Alexia died – even when she was being unreasonable.
After he had been gone for a few minutes, Carmen dragged a chair up close to Alex.
After listening to her story, Carmen gave her the latest information on Alex's recovery.
Maybe I'll get by – after this heals.
Later, after Destiny fell asleep and Jonathan went to his room, Lori regarded her thoughtfully.
Two hours later she was wondering if it had been a good thing after all.
I'll start supper after a while.
Jonathan disappeared around the corner and Alex started after him.
As Carmen expected, he went back to work only a few days after he came home.
Why did Sasha send his creatures after you?
You came after me at the Arch.
After all, in his own twisted way, he'd tried to help her.
Whatever Daniela said to him after she fled worked, and Katie didn't see him for the rest of the day.
After they mated, she killed him.
She told herself he'd gotten there after she'd wrapped the towel around her.
It was, after all, the women's wing.
Gabriel replaced the hourglass after several unsuccessful attempts to shake it.
She whirled away and crossed to the Oracle's book, closing it after his failed attempt to see Rhyn's fate.
In fact, the normal world --while comforting --seemed a bit boring after her trauma.
Hours later, she dropped onto the plush guest bed, clad in a T-shirt and underwear after a hot shower.
Every time I turn around, I'm getting my ass kicked by some beast, many of which are probably after you!
Thought you'd learned something after all those years in Hell.
Uneasy after her dream, she dressed in running clothes and padded out of the room.
She started after him, senses scattered.
Yet you.ve never come after me.
She.d spent the day in thought after her talk with Gabriel, and there was only one solution that might drive Rhyn away before she and Gabriel hurt him.
The demons released us after Sasha fled.
He knew Jared well enough after all their years in Hell together to understand the creature was too narcissistic to care about another.s issues.
Jared limped after him and appeared beside him on the cliff edge, taking in the morning view of grey skies and green forest with a look of distaste.
The Immortals. leader cursed and paced for a few minutes after Rhyn left before disappearing into the hallway.
His sweet smell and the feel of his soft skin lingered in her senses after she.d carried him from the forest.
It was after his adrenaline tapered off that he smelled blood, and he trotted down a path in the direction of the scent.
She trotted after him and stepped into the evening chill.
She had a reason to hate him after what he.d done, and he.d been unable to apologize.
After all his sacrifices, after losing Lilith and Katie to Rhyn, he wasn.t sure what he.d do if Hannah chose someone other than him as her mate.
Jade had disappeared after Kris sent him away in hopes that Katie would become his mate.
Katie was born about seven years after me.
He had come to Darkyn in desperation, after Sasha had invited him to his bed and then dumped him off with the demons.
I.ve sent Immortals after it.
Most had attacked the castle while Darkyn.s personal guard went after Sasha.
When she reached the top of the beach, she paused to catch her breath before hurrying after Jade, whose determined walk soon outdistanced her.
It wasn.t hard to figure out why he did it after so long refusing to become Death.s slave, Darkyn answered.
What happens to you after we get to the Sanctuary?
Kiera's thoughts, warm and fuzzy after too much of Evelyn's special punch, drifted as she gazed into the quiet night sky.
After all, he could fix things around the house that she and Evelyn ignored.
We'll leave after the wedding, so you have a couple of days.
He hadn't uttered anything so stupid in a long time, after she yelled at him for talking like that.
Several members, including Qatwal, may be willing to aid you in regaining your planet after you've reached a peace treaty.
Soon after confirming she was asleep, the two large men who had emptied the house of boxes returned for her.
After Kiera's three months of tormenting him, he would find turning the tables satisfying.
Evelyn scrambled after him, jogging to keep pace with his long legs.
She'd avoided the galley Evelyn had tried for three days to drag her to and said it would prove they were on a ship after she challenged Evelyn to prove it wasn't a dream.
She closed her eyes as she stepped into and through the wall and opened them after two steps.
Soon after, a warrior came to her door and led her down several halls and into a tiny box resembling an elevator.
Brilliant sunlight blinded her after days of grey, and she blinked at the bright, familiar blue sky.
You're sure your brother won't try anything after what that guy said?
Kiera lay on the bed an hour after Evelyn left, staring at the white ceiling with its brightly corded edges.
After a surprised pause, she waved her bracelet in front of the internal access pad.
She sucked in deep breaths, on the verge of hysterics after the freaky trip from cliff to spaceship.
He owed them nothing after his mission, which cleared a path for him to do what he must to regain his throne.
Yes, he had named three conditions, and yes, she remembered agreeing after that fantastic kiss.
After several attempts, the two older boys were satisfied and moved onto another strike and then another block.
After exploring the halls and grounds for an hour or two, she returned to the main atrium, where she heard one of the sisters call her name.
Unlike the cheerful white walls of the house, the tall wall was the unwelcome shade of dark grey that she'd begun to despise after days in the spaceships surrounded by it.
The next morning, she went to the game room after her sparring session and sat the entire day, learning more and more about the game and experimenting with how the symbols on the keyboard interacted with the images before her.
He removed her translator from her ear as promised after a stern warning about not speaking to anyone.
She relaxed after a nice, long soak in the bathtub, her thoughts wandering among the stars.
Even after a month she couldn't go a night without thinking of her friend.
The simple assertion was a waterfall after a month without a drop of information about her.
Evelyn knew she didn't deserve to feel at peace after the mess she dragged Kiera into, but she did feel it, and it made her genuinely content for the first time since she'd kidnapped her best friend.
I'm having some problems with messages being intercepted after they leave the planet.
Less than an hour after she'd started playing the game, the communicator lit up and beeped.
That she took enough interest in him to ask after his injury pleased him.
She stumbled after him into the central area of the dwelling.
Leyon set her down after they passed it.
She rose after a few minutes and stretched.
It stunned him to feel the planet breathing, struggling back to life after hovering so long on the edge of death.
An odd scratching sound came from the kitchen, like Evelyn's cat scratching at the door after it returned from its morning prowl.
I know it's a lot to ask after your … ordeal.
Evelyn asked after a startled pause.
Evelyn moved after a long, considering look, leaving the studio for the kitchen.
After a thick moment of silence, Evelyn rose to place the tarantula cat near the pilot and sealed off the door between the tiny cabin and pilot.
