“When did you know who was on this realm?” Erith asked him.
Varek met her gaze and smiled. “It was a hunch. Mortals who knew of dragons and Dragon Kings? There could be other realms out there with dragons, but it was a good bet that this was where Con and Rhi’s twins are. I believe I spoke to Con’s son. He wouldna give his name, however.”
Erith glanced away and licked her lips. “It’s time all of you met. It’s time for a lot of things.”
“I agree.”
Cael took his mate’s hand. “Why don’t we bring the dragons home and let Varek and Jeyra have some time alone?”
“Yes,” Erith replied with a nod and a soft smile.
“It’s time to return to the others,” Varek told the two dragons. “I hope to see you both again soon.”
Both thanked him. The Pink nuzzled Jeyra before it went into Cael’s arms. Then, it was just Varek and Jeyra.
He touched her face. “You’ve had a busy day.”
“What I saw in the dungeon will haunt me for a long time,” she said. Then she smiled. “But liberating them felt amazing.”
“A lot has changed for you, lass.”
She briefly lowered her eyes to the ground. “More than I could’ve ever imagined.”
“Do you regret any of it?” He hadn’t wanted to ask the question, but he needed to know. Everything hinged on her answer.
