~~~(Time: 6:29 PM)~~~

Setting up a tent in the pouring rain wasn't fun, but now we're slowly getting dry. Luckily, our tent has a waterproof enchantment on it. After setting it up, it was dry inside and dried us so we wouldn't still be wet. "This storm came out of nowhere." It frustrates me, and my voice is laced with that frustration. Marcus didn't want to keep walking in the rain.

Despite how much I want to find my other two kids, Marcus has his needs too, and a child's needs always come before their parents. "No kidding, it's good that we spent extra money on this tent when we picked it up crossing those snow and ice-filled lands to the Border Wall." I'm guessing Hailey and Cera have the same type of tent.

Since they're in Greshina, it's a good chance they're staying in a house or Inn... "Sorry this has happened, Honey. But we'll wait for the storm to pass to keep moving. Traveling in the conditions outside won't be easy." Rain is hitting our tent hard as he says that, and Marcus is cuddled up next to me. He's clinging to me as his eyes are closed.

Marcus is my youngest and the baby of our family, and I treat him like that even though he's getting older. It's hard to watch the kids you gave birth to and love growing up and not needing you anymore. "Have you given what we talked about a thought?" My sudden question is referring to us having another baby. My husband looks at me, confused.

Seems he hasn't been thinking about it. I don't blame him. We've been so busy and preoccupied that there isn't much room to think about things like that. "I'm sorry, Honey. You'll have to refresh my memory about what I was supposed to think about." He's not going to pretend that he remembers, and I'm glad that he doesn't feel like he needs to.

He sees my smile grow and chuckles with me, and it's funny when you think about it. He scoots over and wraps his arm around me. "What you were supposed to think about was the idea of us having another kid." His expression changes, and it's one of doom. I can't help laughing, and he places his face on his palm.

We don't have to have another kid, but it's something to think about. I'd love to have another baby, but that's my own desire for someone to depend on me and love me as my children do. Marcus won't need that in a couple of years, and he'll start becoming independent of me. "Umm... Would you be upset if I said I haven't?" He sees my smile and discovers this isn't that serious.

He takes a deep breath and waits for me to reply to him. "It's okay. Just give it some thought from this point on. It may not seem like a great idea now, but we're our bodies back in their prime." I make good points, but those aren't reasons in themselves as much as I'd want him to want another kid with me. I can't force him to feel that way.

My eyes drift to Marcus, and he's sound asleep. He's a sign that there's no need to rush this decision. My fears about Marcus not needing me anymore and leaving on his own journey are years from now. Until that time comes, I'll enjoy what time I have with him. "Oh, Thank God. I thought you'd be mad about that." My attention is back on my husband.

The lightning flashes and lights up our tent, and thunder shakes the ground and rings our ears. Marcus jolts up and prepares his fire for a fight. I wrap him in my arms and hold him. "It was just thunder. No one's attacking..." He relaxes and stops his fire. The rain hammers the outside of the tent, and he pushes off from me and lays back down.

Chris hugs me from behind and pulls me from Marcus's side. "Come over here and lay with me. Take your mind off our kids and think about yourself. Think about who you are without them." He brings me down with him, and I lay my head on his chest. His words echo in my head, and he's right about trying to find out who I am outside of my children.

~~~(Time: 6:50 PM)~~~

Cera is letting me use him as a pillow as he normally does. My confidence in myself is at an all-time high, and I don't need Cera next to me to feel safe. I still love his company, but I'm not clingy anymore. "Have you thought about what you'll say to them when you're face to face?" Cera almost startles me at the sudden break in silence.

His question is a subject that I've been giving a lot of thought to. As much as I want to make a speech, I think the best way is to tell them who I am and say I'm getting my revenge. That's simple and effective. "I don't know... Something short and quick..." He lets out a single chuckle and runs his hand through my hair. It feels good when he touches me like this.

Meeting the people that betrayed my mother and damned to the life that I had will be a moment I'll savor for the rest of my life. "I wish I could help with that, but I've never been through what you have, and no matter how hard I try, I'll never know what you truly experienced in the past... All I can do is try my hardest to understand and help you." That's already more than enough.

He doesn't know how much it means when a person looks past the things that have happened to you that others would consider a stamp of shame. He sees me for me, and I adore and love him for that. "You do more than I could ever ask every single day, Cera... My life and future was saved because of you..." He's the center of my world... I love him.

I feel a kiss on the top of my head, and I look up at him. Our eyes meet, and I feel a heat rise in me. I crawl up, and my lips lock with his. My heart instantly starts to race, and my eyes get heavy. We spend a couple of minutes kissing and pulling away for air. We part for a final time, and I find myself straddling him. Looking deep into his eyes.

I prefer his natural eye color more, not his elven looks. His white hair and attractive ears are something that I do like. "If we do this, others will get mad at us..." I know what he means, and as badly as I want him, we can't do this. I don't know how to be quiet with Cera. He makes me feel good from sex. He's the only one to ever do that to me.

~~~(Location: Safe House in Greshina, Elven Kingdom)~~~

~~~(Time: 7:09 PM)~~~

We got a lot of scouting done today, and we'll keep it for the next few days. A lot has happened since we got to Greshina. We still don't know why the entire Elven Kingdom is on lockdown, but we're not going to let some time constraints and curfews get in our way. "When do you think the rain will stop?" Jasmine and I have been silent and listening to the sounds of the storm.

It's been relaxing, and I'd instead not answer her. If possible, I wish it'd stay like this the time we're here...
