12: Awkward Discussions
Lily Dodson
April 14, 2735 â 12 Hours Later â Late Morning
Lily and Freya returned home with their daughters in the morning, just as promised. They then spent some time alone with Sam in order to debrief and talk about everything that happened in the last day, minus the decision the two women had made. They also discussed the woman named Winter Fowler, who had left earlier that morning, deliberating on the benefits of her keeping watch.
At this point in time, having a mind reader around, who could alert them to danger ahead of time, seemed like a good idea, assuming they could really trust her. However, it was something they would discuss in more detail when she returned.
But now that they were all caught up with each other, Sam was watching their children while Lily and Freya were alone with the sisters in Lexiâs room, in order to touch base with them, as well as eventually talk about an important subject.
Heidi was sitting on the bed against the wall, hugging her legs with her chin on her knees, while Lexi was sitting on the edge at the head of the bed, one leg up as she faced everyone. Lily was then sitting cross-legged at the foot of the bed, angled toward the two sisters, and Freya was leaning against the wall, with her arms crossed, her expression gentle and sympathetic.
For now, the four of them were just debriefing about everything that happened, just letting everyone get their thoughts and feelings out, but soon Freya would be the one to bring up a very different topic.
An awkward one.
Sam had no idea that Lily and Freya had come to a decision, since it was something they had chosen not to mention yet. And even now, they werenât really planning on telling him unless they could all come to some sort of agreement for how it would work out.
For Lily, she just felt awkward because she knew that she and Freya were probably going to continue spending alone time together, even if it didnât work out.
When Lily first discovered she could heal, she knew this might happen. In fact, this truly was the first thought that popped into her head after her initial shock. Freya was terrified of seriously injuring Lily, and the removal of that fear was going to have consequences. Likewise, Lily had been afraid of getting seriously hurt and having to go to the hospital.
Because, aside from the pain and scarring, how would she ever be able to explain away the type of injuries her friend might leave?
But now that barrier was gone.
Certainly, Freya still needed to be as careful as possible, since Lily could still die just like a normal regenerating super, but now a lot of serious injuries werenât so serious anymore.
And now Freya could satisfy her bloodlust â her craving to bite into flesh, down to the bone â by biting Lily.
Nothing about the situation was a turn-on for Lily. And at no point was
