"Hey, big brother." Adron opened his eyes to see Zarina leaning into the room. He tried to muster a smile, but couldn't.
"Theo the Bad just said it was okay to see you. How do you feel?"
Zarina took a hesitant step inside his room, and it was then he saw Livia
behind her. His wife had her long hair braided down her back.
The blue pantsuit made her skin glow and those large, cat-like eyes held so
much tenderness in them that it made him ache. Adron clenched his teeth as a wave of desire tore through him. He couldn't stand to see her,
knowing she belonged to him, and yet he could never again have her.
It was the cruelest blow of all. "Get out," he said, turning his head away from them. "Adron?" The sound of Livia's gentle voice washed over him like a gentle caress and it tore through
him like glycerin on glass. She came forward and when he felt
her touch on his arm... "Get away from me!" he snarled, pushing her away. He glared at his sister as his monitors blared. "Take her to a
lawyer and get us divorced. Now!" Theo came running in with two nurses behind him. "Out!" he snapped at the women. "I told you not to upset him." Livia felt her tears swell at the sight of the doctor
forcing Adron to lie down and the sound of Adron cursing them all.
Her throat tight, she looked up at Zarina. "What did I do?"
"It's not you," Zarina said, hugging her to her side as they left the room and headed down the hallway. "Adron is just blaming you for what Lia did."
"Lia?" "His first wife." Livia stumbled. "He was married before?" She nodded. "Yes. And she was one serious bitch.
Since she was the Wurish heiress, her father had negotiated a marriage between them when they were both twenty. Lia had only agreed because she wanted a
trophy husband and as the youngest commissioned officer in League history
and heir to my father's empire, Adron was a choice candidate for her.
"But they never really got along. Three weeks after he'd been found, my
mother, father and I were in his hospital room, trying to give him reasons to
live. All of a sudden, she showed up with divorce papers. She handed them to
him and told him that she was too young to be some guy's nursemaid."
Livia was aghast. "How could she do such a thing?" "I have no idea, but if I live an eternity, I will never forget the look on Adron's face.
But then, I personally think it's the best thing that could have happened to
him. I just wish the ogress had had better timing." Zarina
stopped and leveled a hard look on her. "So, are we going to a lawyer's
office?" Livia bit her lip in indecision. Adron had been through so much that she wondered if he was still mentally sound. His physical scars
she knew, it was the ones she couldn't see that scared her. She
searched Zarina's eyes for the truth.
