Nina couldn't resist teasing, "Once you're married, you two should have kids soon. And when they're born, you better let me spoil them!"

Micah replied with a quick retort, "You're not even in the Yaren Tribe anymore. Even Dad followed you to Birkham. How about you come back here? I'll hire you for a high salary."

He wasn't just joking. Distance really was an issue. Though Nina had chosen to stay in Birkham, Micah secretly hoped she would stay in the Yaren Tribe. As her brother, he wanted to make up for lost time and ensure she was part of their lives. Nina understood the sincerity behind his words, but Nash, her adoptive parents and everything she had were in Birkham. She had no interest in managing the Yaren Tribe too.

Smiling, she responded, "When Freya, my sister-in-law, has kids, I'll come back to help take care of them."

Though Micah had power and could easily hire someone to help after the baby was born, nothing beats having family close by.

Freya's eyes welled up with tears at hearing Nina call her "sister-in-law." She felt so fortunate that not only did Micah recognize her, but everyone around him did too.

However, Micah brought up a more serious matter with Pharaoh. "I have a friend who's been injected with a modified drug. It's one of Seth's creations. Father, I need your help to see if you can do anything."

Pharaoh's face darkened at the mention of Seth's name. A modified version of Seth's drug?
