"I'm glad you approve," Kira said with a smile. Mars winced when he saw her smile that reminded him of the smile curved up on Thessalis's lips when she spoke to him before Mars killed her.
It was a smirk that now he always associated with wicked witches and it was hard to change his mind over it.
Mars knew Kira was dangerous and would probably become a fierce antagonist if they were on the opposing sides. In short, he was relieved that Kira was not their enemy.
Mars thought for a moment while Kira was getting ready to leave the dining room to get her plans to work. He was wondering if he should tell Kira that Emmelyn was pregnant.
Ahh.. maybe this was not a good time?
Mars thought perhaps it would be better if he talked to Emmelyn about announcing her pregnancy together. She might want to wait until she reached the second trimester, as some people said it's bad luck to announce one's pregnancy early.
