Lumina sat on the bed, fingers curled tightly into the sheets, her eyes unfocused as she turned her head toward every voice she heard. She cleared her throat as she tried to gain Adam attention.
After all he is the only one she recalls so she is going to get more information from him or so we thought.
Alexis watched her for a long moment, trying to read her expression, trying to understand how she knew Adam's name but not Ashen's. Nothing made sense. Not her voice, not her trembling hands, not the way she flinched anytime Adam stood too close.
Alexis finally exhaled and turned to Adam.
"Take care of her for now," he muttered. "I will speak with Lord Drex, we have no time to start wasting she needs her memories back quickly."
He didn't wait for Adam's response; he stepped out immediately, after he doesn't have a good relationship with his brother.
The moment the door closed, Adam turned to Lumina and the smirk that rose on his lips was slow and full of victory.
