"Go ahead. I'm spent. Need to sleep," Thalassa said, turning her face away, refusing to meet his gaze.
She assumed her cold demeanor would have angered him, but to her surprise, he simply turned and left.
With his icy presence gone, Thalassa let out a small sigh of relief.
Her eyes drifted towards the bank card on the bedside table. She wondered if Lysander had drained it dry.
Regardless, she decided she no longer wanted it.
Thalassa felt drained, as though every bit of her energy had been sapped.
As she was about to fall asleep, the door opened. Before anyone entered, the joyous voices of children filled the room.
"Mommy!"
The innocent voices of the four little ones echoed around the room, tugging at Thalassa's heartstrings.
Her eyes snapped open, and she looked towards the door.
Four adorable little faces were running towards her, swinging their tiny legs.
Their waddling reminded her of little penguins, and they were incredibly cute.
Thalassa's spirits lifted instantly as if she had found some energy within herself.
She propped herself up, a gentle smile appearing on her face. "Atticus, Dorian, Elowen, Sophia..."
"Mommy!"
"Mommy, why is your voice so soft?" Dorian asked.
The children gathered by her bed, their chubby hands clutching the bed sheets, their little heads tilted, eyes filled with wonder and love.
