Eira's POV
Though I was disappointed about not finding the box, I chose to let it go and move forward. I still had to meet Alice.
Just as we stepped out of the house, Kael spoke softly. "This home belongs to you now. Do you want me to renovate it? Make some changes?"
I shook my head. "Leave it as it is. Let it fade with time."
I did not want to cling to the past, nor did I want to erase it completely. Every part of it had shaped who I was. One day, it would disappear just like me when my last breath came.
We left soon after and drove toward the cemetery to visit Alice and Jennifer. Raven placed flowers on their graves along with us.
"Alice, this is my son, Raven," I said softly, a faint smile touching my lips. "You are an aunt now…" I spoke to her quietly for a while, sharing little things as though she could still hear me. When I finished and wiped my tears, Rafe came to stand beside me.
I looked at him.
