"One year." Lia lay on the bed, while Prince Aerus lay beside her. They hugged each other while thinking about ways to solve the problems they were facing. "Is that enough for me? They are strangers to me. I've never met them, at least I don't remember about them."
"They are good people," whispered Prince Aerus. Confusion hit him too. "I'm also confused as to why they wouldn't break the seal on your DNA."
"Maybe because they don't want me being their child back." Lia's hands clenched, she bit her lower lip. The only reason she had.
"Hey." The prince's voice was low. He cupped her face, then studied her teary eyes. "They want you to be a pure race too, I'm sure."
"Then why won't they help me?"
Hesitant. "There must be a good reason."
Even so, it was difficult for Lia to accept it. Hier gaze fell dimly. "So am I an unwanted child?"
