Leonarya balked, unable to handle the reins of her shock when she heard Freya's question. Her mind was shot with a lot of thought missiles, unaware that Aiden was slightly creeping into her thoughts slowly so as not to alarm her of his presence.
She didn't suspect the keenness of her daughter's stare on her. Rather, it unnerved her the more.
How had Freya found out? Had they met?
These two questions kept repeating themselves in her mind like a mantra, and she felt perturbed and on edge. After all, she hadn't recruited the girl yet into her divine plan. Things were getting out of shape. Why had she come back in the first place even?
Now that she thought of it, she concluded that her daughter's excuse of wanting to bond was so lame. They haven't had any bonding time since she had returned. If anything, they were divided the more!
