Ember looked at Amara's boyfriend. He was tall, sort of wiry. Not what she expected from Amara's boyfriend. But then she remembered Alex, he was slo not what she expected Adrienne's husband to look like.
Still, both men were handsome in their own right. And he wasn't weak, since he was able to survive doomsday long enough to meet Amara. Ember kissed Aiden on the cheek, then went to sit on the sofa with Amara's boyfriend.
"So, what's your name?" Ember asked, not at all concerned about what was going on with Amara and Aiden.
The boyfriend gave Ember a side glance before turning to Amara and Aiden. He pursed his lips, then answered. "Cal."
"Cal," Ember repeated. "Well, Cal, don't worry, your girlfriend is in good hands."
He gave a confused look. Ember didn't elaborate, only resting her hand on Cal's shoulder and turning to face the other two.
