Aldrick was not aware that it was going to be his first and last hug with his twin flame.
Because if he had known this earlier, he would have stayed a little longer, held on a little more firmly…
He would have made some efforts from his end, at the very least, to make it last longer, even if by a few seconds.
Now he knew how and why both Amelié and Zacharie were able and ready to sacrifice everything for each other.
Now he knew the power that love holds… he was well aware of the magic that it casts on everyone who takes their first step towards it.
It was the first time he had ever seen Eachna, this was the first time he had even heard her name.
This was the first time she had ever cried in front of him, and he wanted to eradicate all those reasons from their roots, that had ever dared to cause even a single tear to appear in her eyes.
He now knew how Amelié was even ready to sacrifice her own life just to make Zacharie happy.
