"I think they may be in trouble," he said, his breath soft and sweet on her face.

Then he let out a very soft breath, almost a sigh.

I listened hard, but heard nothing, not even the soft breath of a sleeper.

"Then they would hang you," she said, looking up at him, feeling his soft breath on her lips.
