Chapter 64: *“What have we done?!“*

“She never took it while Damien was here, because he would notice.” Alora said, her voice distant, as if she was lost in her memories. “Sarah never wanted to cross Damien, at least not openly. So, the moment he was gone…she ripped it off

“That’s why you stopped wearing it?” Darien asked with surprise. “I thought it was because you were upset that Damien was gone and didn’t want to be reminded about that by wearing the necklace.”

Kain scoffed before admonishing Darien. “And to think, brain trust here is going to be the one to take care of our darling sister’s tender feelings.”

Galen shook his head. “That’s seriously what you thought?” he asked with disbelief. “When a female is missing someone, she is more likely to wear or carry something with her to remind her of them. It makes them feel close to the special someone they are missing.”

Darien grimaced. “I have a reason for thinking this way.”

“Really, do tell.” Kain said, giving him a hard look, one brow raised.

Next to Alora, Alpha Andrew was having a hard time containing his smile at the ribbing his son was receiving from his fated mate’s brothers. Alora glanced sideways at the Alpha, then turned her gaze quickly back out the window. If she had kept looking in his direction, they would both lose the battle against their laughter.

“Every morning Damien and I would meet up with Alora, he would touch the necklace and say, ‘Good morning, Starlight.‘ Then pat her on the head before we spent time chatting away before class.” Darien said. “I figured, now that he wasn’t here to greet her like that, something only he did, she was too sad to wear the necklace.”

“Huh…” Galen said.

“When you put it that way…” Kain started.

“It makes sense.” Galen completed.

“Hey, look at that, you’re not totally ignorant of a female’s softer emotions.” Kain teased.

Darien growled at them. “What did I do to you two?”

“You’re laying claim to our beloved little sister.” Galen said dryly.

“I have a question.” Kain said. “Why does Damien call Alora, Starlight?”
