He had vanished in mere seconds, and he could return just as quickly. It seemed like he was everywhere and nowhere at the same time. Daphne shivered, and it wasn't because of the cool breeze from the open window.

"No," Zephyr shook his head in confusion, "I was flying around and I thought about paying you a visit since you're… pregnant," Zephyr whispered the last word like it was a big cursed secret.
