He tells her "ooh love".
She had asked Mother what the girl’s name would be. Reilly suggest another name starting with the ‘K’, so that it would match her and Kharon’s names perhaps? Or would she – like the twins – be named after their Father too? Kylin was close to suggesting the name to start with a ‘B’, so the girl’s name would match Badden’s. That would be cute, right?
But then, then Father calls for Kharon. And says the girl would want Kharon to name her. Kylin’s hazel gaze moves from the girl to their father and then to Kharon, who stood at her side. The confusion clear in her gaze. Had she missed something? Was there something he hadn’t told her?
Kharon names her. No, not names, he introduces her. As if she already had that name prior meeting them all. But before she can ponder over it too much, he pulls her out of her thoughts. She presses closer against him, her neck bending a little to ghost her lips over his skin. Then he’s in her head. Kylin shudders, a small smile tugging on the corners of her lips. Of course she would go with him. Didn’t she always? Unless the times he trailed away from her side for other things.
She turns with him as he moves. She makes sure to keep close at his side, buried under his wing. Those wings she loves. Very much so. Kylin does not look back when they walk away, it’s not like they would miss her presence anyway. Kali held their attention.
