Chapter 142: Chapter 142: Sacrifice (Volume 3: Secrets of the Prophecy)

Gerard Hughes - 18 years ago

GERARD STUDIED THE SLEEPING female. She was quite lovely, despite her advanced pregnancy, and his body stirred with desire, something he hadn't felt in a long time. His current wife had long since made him feel that way and he rarely spent time with her anymore unless it was to discuss their toddler son, Peter. The thought of him made Gerard purse his lips in annoyance. He had little patience for children, although he knew he'd have to become more involved soon if he wanted to have any lasting influence on the boy. For all the apathy he felt toward his wife, he cared for his son in his own way. Out of all his children, Peter had the most potential to develop a natural aramusatu.

At least he had all the right markers. Only time would tell.
