Everything was set up in the study for only me and Adele looked right at me before lighting the herb. “Ready?”
“Only if it’s promising.”
“What about your future wouldn’t be?” Jaylyn asked. “We’ve seen you before.”
I frowned. “When?”
She looked around like maybe she shouldn’t have said anything. “When Trever showed us how he could induce a vision with specific others in it and you―”
“Walked away. Right. What happened?”
“Nothing much.” Zayden said. “We saw all three of our sons doing some kind of training then you were there, asking how it was coming along.”
“That’s it?” It seemed useless.
“It’s always rather short.” Adele said. “Are you ready?”
I sighed and sat back on the couch. “I suppose.”
She lit the herb and I watched the smoke rise up above it.
It was dark but there was a small fire lit. I saw me. I walked into my room at the Senian palace and the image focused down on what I was holding in my arm. It was a little boy; my boy as an infant. He had his mother’s hair but he was right out asleep so we couldn’t see that he also had her eyes. I looked a little tired myself so it must have been late.
I walked over to the bassinet in the room and gently lowered him down then covered him with a blanket, tucking it in around him. “Goodnight.”
I kissed his head but hung back and watched him for what seemed like the longest moment. I was seeing this unusual change in myself. The baby was very young so this had to be only months away and I saw how much I really wanted to be there.
“Am I too late?” Jaylyn came into the room from behind me and skipped right over to me.
“Shh. Don’t wake him.”
“Awe, I wanted to say goodnight.”
“You can. You just have to be here when he wakes up in another two hours.”
Jaylyn laughed and I was beginning to find it weird that we haven’t seen Ruby putting her son to bed. “I will if you want me too.”
I laughed a little while Jaylyn put her arm around me and I did her, getting her to snuggle beside me. It was weird. I looked up at Troy and he was kind of unhappy about how close we seemed.
“He’s just so sweet. I don’t want to leave him.” Jaylyn went on, keeping her starry eyes down on my son.
“You’re welcome to stand here all night. It’s probably what I’ll do. I’m afraid to fall asleep like something will happen if I do. He’s kind of all I have.”
“Not true. You have us.”
“Thanks.”
Jaylyn’s smile was relaxing just watching it like this and the image began to fade while she gently rubbed my chest.
I didn’t really know how to respond but it accomplished seeing what I wanted. I didn’t even want to sleep while my son did in case anything happened. Now that’s devotion.
“What was that?” Troy asked.
“Oh, did you see him?!” Jaylyn said, ignoring Troy’s jealous moment. “He was
