Ky took a shaky breath that was audibly raspy. What was she supposed to do? She was humiliated . And yet the thought of self-consoling seemed awful. She'd gotten so ...

Ky had a pang of guilt. This was her little sister. She shouldn't be trauma-dumping on her. She was supposed to be the one that was here for Lyra, not ...

(haha fair enough) "I try to be," Zander answered with a little smile. "And I could say the same of you. You have a very calming energy." Ky was marinating ...

(booo you and your puns xD) "Nice to meet you." Zander dipped his head, stepping back to let Pamela have access to the stairs, should she desire to go first. ...
