My Salvation - Page 112

“So, what’s next?” Cas asked.

Aeson pointed to her plate. “Finish your breakfast.”

“Then what?”

“I think you and Priest have some games to play,” he said, pointing to the counter behind him. “I have snacks all lined up for you.”

Cas felt her eyes fill. “Thank you.”

Heath placed his hand on her head. “Take each day as they come and enjoy every second.”

Priest took her hand. “We will.”

EPILOGUE

Kincaid picked up a pancake and headed for the door.

“You sure you’re okay there, witchling?” Aeson asked with narrowed eyes.

“Yeah, I’m fine. I’m going to go check in with Kendrick for additional lessons.”

“Okay, but if I find out you’re lying…” Aeson let the threat hang between them.

Kincaid swallowed. Of all his unit brothers, Aeson was the biggest mother hen of them all. “It’s not bad.”

Aeson stared.

“I’m not freaked out.”

Heath stared.

“Okay then. Heading out.”

“We’re here if you need us,” Cas said,hi with sympathetic eyes. He winked at her, and his brothers seemed to relax at his playful nature.

He waved his pancake at them and walked out the front door.

Though the city was still dim and people were still in mourning, the streets felt lighter. More people greeted one another as they walked by. Or they stopped to compare battle stories.

It had been a disaster, and they had almost lost Cas, but the city had rallied together, and it helped somehow.

He thought back to his dreams from the night before.

Children. He saw his mate surrounded by lots and lots of children.

That couldn’t be bad, right?
