Sarah realized that without the bond of trust she shares with Aiden and without Eve's help, both Sarah's marriage and their business would be shaken up because of Kaia and Bryn. At these thoughts, Sarah's mood dropped, and she was glad that Aiden noticed it and he enveloped her in his hug.
She took in deep breaths and inhaled his woody-flowery scent that calmed her nerves as he rubbed her back gently.
"Thank you...", Sarah whispered.
"Anytime, my love. That is why I'm here...", his deep and soothing voice spoke directly to her soul.
Sarah realized that they are standing and hugging in the middle of the Blanc store and she stepped away, unsure how to look at her employees. This frail and needy woman is not matching the image of a fearless Goddess Nyx she is trying to project.
