As Damien turned away, she pressed her lips together, hesitated momentarily, and finally. whispered, “Thank you.”

Cherise nodded emphatically as she watched the man’s tall, lanky figure disappear from sight.

Cherise snapped back to reality. “Of course, he is.” She crouched down to embrace Soren. “Because he looks a lot like you.”

Soren lay in Cherise’s embrace and hugged her arm. He was momentarily silent. “It’s up to you, Mommy. I’ll accept him if you think he’s good enough, and I’ll resist him if you think he

“I might accept him.” The little boy bit his lip. He lowered his head and spoke somewhat shyly. “I think… he’s quite nice.” As long as he doesn’t hurt you, Mommy.
