LANE came to sit down next to her, and Cwyn stayed on his lap, sending clever little fingers into his shirt pockets looking for goodies. He found a small, carved horse that Lane had picked up from the warehouse earlier that day and went scampering off to the back room to show Yarri. Lane put a hand on his wife’s knee and smiled kindly.

“You’re tired—you should go sleep.”

Bethen nodded, her eyes still on Torrant. “Listen to him. He’s got a beautiful voice.”

“That he does.”

“What did you two find out?” she asked, one eye still on the little ones in the living room.

Lane sighed. “I’d hoped to wait until you had some sleep.”

She smiled tiredly. “Tell me now, and then I can sleep.”

And so he did. When he was done, she let out a little moan and set her chin on her clasped hands that were resting on the table. “Nobody leaves the house until this is resolved, right?”

“Absolutely,” he reassured.

“Good.” She sighed a little, and he could see her pushing it around in her head. “He’s still hiding something,” she said after a moment. Lane had told her about the icy blue of his eyes.

“That he is.”

“He’s awfully young to hold all this in his chest.” She yawned. “That’s twice he’s had his family snatched away from him. I think Yarri just became his three moons….” She trailed off, her eyes wandering along with her voice.

“Go nap, Bethie,” he said at last, “and I’ll wake you when Starry needs food.”

“We need to keep them safe.”

“I promise.” He made the vow solemnly and then shooed her off to nap.
