Joseph was feeling a little lightheaded as well. He sobered at Rhys' stuttered confession, reaching down to cup his face. "Good," he agreed. "Because now that I have you, I'm not letting you go unless that is truly what you desire." Unlike the younger Kindred, Joseph had been down this road a few times. Even though it always ended in heartbreaking loss, he was well aware of what made him happy. Rhys checked nearly every box. And nearly everything problematic wasn't his fault. None of them were unmanageable.
