Vernique managed a nod, though she tensed just looking at her. She'd never had a problem with Aslief before. Dark, Mysterious, whatever, she'd made more sense than some of the family.

"Juice outside?" Solver asks. He's getting so good with words, so quick. His father's side.
"Not right now, sweetie," she says, a strain in her voice. Svalin would insist on coming outside, too, and Vernique just couldn't face her right now.
She'd thought she'd known what she was getting into when she agreed to marry Svalin. But she'd never expected to end up hurting this much.
