Selene POV

I watched quietly as their eyelids fluttered severally as the girls struggled to stay awake to listen to their favourite bedtime stories.

The storm had passed…Noah was back to me again; Nora would be punished and her accomplices and I had finally put an end to whatever it was that I had with Xavier but why does it feel like a punishment? Where was the joy… the ecstasy that came with victory? And where was Kragen?

I sighed for the thousandth time, as Faustina gently closed the bedtime story, and walked noiselessly to their shelf to return it. "I'll be off, Your Majesty," she whispered to me.

"Sure!" I nodded with a smile "Thank you for everything today and also thank Brenna,".
