The pair was silent for the longest moment. Kaden remained on the bed and stared at the blank ceiling. Every so often, he'd hear her quiet shift. When he'd close his eyes, he could hear her soft breathing. He knew she wasn't asleep by the erratic heartbeats. Was she anxious? What was on her mind? He was willing to pay a pretty penny to hear her thoughts.
"How come in my third life I have a brother and not sisters like my second two?"
Kaden tilted his head to glance in her direction. She was still on her side and not facing him. His gaze softened at her attempt for a conversation.
"Because your sisters were liabilities. In the first life, she joined the war and encouraged it. In the second, she had a part in your arrangement with Atlantis. Having a brother is a much safer option," he responded calmly.
Thank you for your warm wishes yesterday! They came this morning to fix the heater, but I already woke up with a sore throat and a cold from the extreme temperature, but hopefully I get better soon. You guys are amazing, thank you again <3
