"I don't believe I said a bad word against him, Aria. Other than perhaps I liked him..." Gregroi kept mumbling as he led Aria out the door. "They wanted us gone..."

"But the way you said that..." Aria frowned slightly. "Would I not have been approved to be your lifemate because I was not born Carpathian?"
"Are you alright?" Valzar asked with concern following her closely.

"No, certainly not. These are different circumstances though. I will admit that if I had had an idea that she was seeing this fellow, I would have insisted she not. Male conversions are very dangerous. And while I am happy that they are happy, I am surprised that he lived through it. What he was before he was Carpathian must have been very strong."
"Yes. I really am tired though. I'd love to curl up and rest right about now."

"But he's her lifemate, the only one for her," Aria said softly. "I'm glad it worked out for them like it did..."
"Then sleep," Valzar slipped in beside her and pulled his lifemate into the shelter of his arms.

"As am I, Ma Chere. It has been a learning experience that we shall always remember."
"But...if I go to sleep, who will put us away for the day? I know you don't like it...and I can't leave you to do it. It wouldn't be right."

Valzar hesitated before asking, "Do you want to...sleep now?"

"No...I'd rather just sit here, like a mortal." She snuggled into his chest and sighed. "What did you think of Mom and Daddy?"

She nodded slowly. "I see...I'm so-" She smiled and shook her head. "I hope it gets easier for you. Is there any way I can help?"

"Just stay with me," he said quietly. "I will do my best in this life with you but much is unfamiliar and unlike my nature..."

"It will become more familiar over time. And you can always use my memories and my knowledge to help you fill in the gaps if you're uncertain how to act in a situation. My mind is an open book, you may use it any time you wish." Callista kissed his cheek, unable to reach anything else and still be laying comfortably.
