Kael's POV
There was complete silence after what Roman said.
By now every one of us knew well, we had lost that old Eira. We wouldn't see her the same ever again.
"Now I think about it, we should have gone to meet her in the prison at least once back then," Roman said, "Though we wouldn't have trusted her, still...."
He then looked at me. "Not you and Lucian or Jason, as I could understand your reason for not wanting to see her, but at least I should have gone."
My world fell utterly silent. Because I didn't have the courage to admit to them or to myself that in fact I went to see her after I got revenge on our enemies. And then what happened.
Damn it! My pain and hatred back then surely got the worst of me.
But sooner or later I will have to tell them. I wasn't sure how they will react.
Roman turned to Rafe. "We two should have tried it."
Rafe said nothing and looked away. He always chose silence over revealing what was in his mind.
