Redhawk Caldera I don't like people who threaten kids.

teya told a story about a swan and a duckling who reconciled in the end despite deep differences.
sorana lay between them. she had kept that boundary since the first time it had been set. if reyes hated the arrangement he had said nothing. this way was easier to tolerate him close after a frustrating moment; he was here for their daughter, she would tell herself, relaxing into sleep.
but tonight she could not. she lay on her back with sorana tucked close and stared at the ceiling of the earthen room.
