My nerves were starting to get the best of me. I was still rattled based on what Tag'arkh told me yesterday. I still didn't know what to do with the information. I didn't know how to take it. The only thing that still made me feel calm was the fact that Ivan still loves me. He spent last night showing me just exactly how much he loved me, bringing me to climax six times until my body couldn't take any more. Then after that, he laid awake with me because he knew just how scared I was to fall asleep. I didn't want to be visited with the fates and that scratchy voice ever again.
Now we were both bleary eyed and on a journey to the mountains to go visit my mother. While I didn't believe I was Arthiana I still wanted to know the truth, the complete truth. Tag'arkh and Madea told me all they knew about Arthiana, though they suspected my mother might know a bit more and I totally agree.
