She's engaged.

Aiara stare at the giant ring on her finger, dazed.

Though she more worried about the fact that she's marrying into royalty.

"There you are. Why you out here alone?"

"Getting some fresh air. Everyone want to know when I'm dropping another book."

"We can retire to bed if you like."

She's about to reply when her phone rang. She look at the screen but didn't recognise the number.

She answer and put it on speaker.

"Aiara Honey."

"I'm Meghan Taylor from Child Protective Service."

Aiara look at Felix. She's confused.

"I'm calling on the behalf of Arianna Troye."

"Is Arianna OK?" She has seen Arianna in years. Since they graduate college. Aiara know Arianna got married.

"Can you come to Vancouver?"

"Yes sure."

"Thank you." Aiara hang up and look at Felix.

"Looks like I'm going to Canada. I'm starting to hate flying."

"Yeah me too."

They left for the airport immediately. Aiara is planning on sleeping the entire three hours to Vancouver. Whatever is coming she must be well rested for it.

They got to the airport and she happily kick off her heels once on the plane.

"Relief."

"I have some of your clothes in the room. Rest up. I have work to do."

"You're always working. I want to cuddle." She climb on his lap and curl up.

"You know I'm not warm right?"

"Don't care. I want to cuddle."

Felix close the laptop and stand up with Aiara hanging onto him. He walk to the bedroom in the back and set her on the bed. He get her a shirt and she change. He strip out of his clothes and get into bed with her.

"What do you think happen?"

"She's dead."

"Why you say that?"

"If the parents were still alive they would throw the kids into Foster care. But if they are dead that means the kids go to a family member or someone the parents trust."

"We haven't spoken in years."

"Yet she still trust you. We'll find out more when we get there. Now sleep."
