Elian's POV
*****
After breakfast, Lucian escorted his sister and her mate to the palace gates. For a final goodbye.
Elian had already had a brief moment with Aurora before she left.
"You know my brother's a bonehead." She had pulled him into a light hug in the presence of everyone else and whispered. "Be patient with him. Mind you, I didn't say be stupid. You have my permission to spank his ass if he acts out of place."
He had chuckled softly, hugging her back.
His future sister in-law. That's what she's always made herself to be in his life.
But truth be told, with each adventure and turmoil they faced, Elian no longer saw her as just his mate's sister. Dare he say he saw her as a sister.
All these ran through his mind as he stood on the balcony of his room, overlooking the vast palace grounds and the rest of Moon Haven City.
