Another lover's quarrel

This answer struck Rui Fei's heart like an ice pick had been stabbed through despite having anticipated it. He was extremely grateful that he knew how to alter his seraphic energy otherwise who knows if Ji Yao would have still kept him by his side. "Why..... why do you think that is?" asked Rui Fei weary of the answer. He didn't know which clan his mother belonged to but he knew it had everything to do with what was happening between him and Rui Fei.

Ji Yao shuffled to lay on his side till he was facing Rui Fei who was also looking at him from across the cabin. The sound of heavy rain battering against the window was disruptive but Ji Yao ignored it as he stretched out his hand producing a ball of lightning.
