I feel like a lot of love stories rush the big "I love you" part. So I am trying my best not to. Grace is also sometimes guarded by the walls she puts up. She doesn't always let her deep emotions show. Yes Malum can feel and read her emotions, but he won't push Grace into admitting anything she isn't comfortable telling him yet. 

@CameronTollett, Dude, I love that. In my story, they say "I love you" after like a week and a half of knowing each other but I feel like it all depends on how intensely someone feels. I really love this story! Sorry for saying that so much, but seriously!
