Touch

Cara knew numerous ways to touch someone. With one single touch, she could inflict pain. Or lust. Or even both. But she had never experienced a touch like this.

She remembered the hand around her neck. So soft, so gentle, almost a lover’s touch. And yet, there was a strength in this touch. The muscles and the tendons owned the strength of a warrior, used to killing with their hands. And then there was an underlying power, more than just that of brute force. Magic power. Power that could crush her. A Confessor’s power. She would have been content with dying that day.

It would have been a thousand times better than this anyway. Buried alive in a tomb. She’d rather have died by Kahlan’s hand. One of the few persons she deemed worthy to kill her. So she did the next best thing and grabbed the Confessor’s hand. If she couldn’t die by Kahlan’s touch, she wanted to die touching her.
