Chapter 14: Everyone is going to die...
Selene POV
"Mom," Vina murmured sleepily, snaking her tiny arms around my neck, "When are we going to see that nice man? You promised us,".
I sighed, settling the sheets around her. The girls have been whining all day about when we're going to see Xavier and it irked me because I knew they were attracted to him because he was their father.
My mind drifted to the conversation I had with Lucius earlier and my heart pumped nervously. So, Xavier had lost all of his memories of me. That was why he didn't recognize me. That would also explain how broken he had been when I talked about his wife at the park.
"Mom..." Vina whined, shaking me. "I think he's a nice man, mom. If you don't want him for yourself, maybe you can give him to me,".
"What!" I bit back a laugh. "He's grown enough to be your father, Vina. How can you even say that?"
"Well, I can be betrothed to him. As soon as I come of age, we'll get married. Won't you like it, Mom? Now you can find reasons to visit..." she lowered her voice. "Your former pack again,".
"We're too young for marriage, Vina," Maeve sighed from the other side of the bed. "And please, can you really stop talking? I want to sleep,".
"Whatever," Vina rolled her eyes and huffed.
