Chương 231: Chapter 231 - Letter

"That…" he mumbled softly as he stared at the unopened letter.

He knew there was only one person who could have left that there, and so did all the others when they realized what Erik was staring at.

Elora and Emma felt his turmoil through their link, and quickly sent him comforting feelings through their link. Emma walked up to him and grabbed his large hand with a bright smile in a show of silent support.

While Emily, Astrid, and Alice were not bonded to Erik in the same way, they could see the complicated feelings on his face and all felt for him in their own way. 

Emily, for example, still had some trouble acknowledging her own feelings, although she had, by now, fully accepted that she cared for Erik. Meanwhile, Alice didn't really feel that strongly about Erik yet, but the fact that it involved his mother was a trigger for her due to her own past. Finally, Astrid wasn't so complicated: she loved Erik, and had no problem feeling that way.
