Chapitre 187: Chapter 187 : Doubleganger

Theodora pulled back and studied the man in front of her, "what do you mean by that? You don't have a family?"

"I do not," Renly responded, "I was told that my mother was the slave of a rich lord somewhere, he raped her constantly and when she fell pregnant with me, he tossed her out to live as a mere begger in the streets of Cenia. After I was born my mother fell ill and eventually died, she had no other children hence I have no siblings, and she never spoke of where she was from so I didn't know my family." The dark haired man bowed his head for a few seconds before looking back up at Theodora, "does that answer your question?"

Theodora felt her heart sink just slightly at Renly's story, just like her, he too had suffered and lost his family. "But what about friends? Anyone you feel you may love? Don't you have someone like that?"
