Taking his eyes briefly from the road, Ryu searched the radio for a good station. A lovely, haunting melody paused his efforts, and he glanced back at her for a sign of her approval. She nodded, and settled back in her seat as the music washed over her.
All alone on my knees I pray
For the strength to stay away
In and out, out and in you go
I feel your fire, then I lose my self control
How can I ease the pain
When I know you're coming back again?
How can I ease the pain in my heart...
Grace's own heart picked up in speed as she listened. She was afraid of getting burned again by Gabriel's fire. At the moment, she felt as if her emotions were stacked and bundled like kindling, just waiting for the first deadly spark to set them ablaze.
Every time that I let you in
You take away something deep within
A fool for love is a fool for pain
But I refuse to love you again...
Her eyes squeezed shut during the repeat of the chorus, and she felt herself sink deeper into the ballad. The singer's voice was exceptional, and Grace felt as if her soul would rise out of her body as the song reached its climax.
If it's not love you're coming for
Tell me, baby, why you're here knock-knock-knockin' at my door
I can't take it no more, no more, no more, no more, baby
Give me all or nothing at all!
Grace had been so absorbed in the music that it took a moment before she realized that the limo had stopped. As the song ended, she opened her eyes and met Ryu's curious gaze.
"We have arrived, Madam."
