Nicholas left his family for a while especially Yiran. She needed time to adjust and accept this new information which was related to her brother. She knew all along that this would happen but she didn't know it would happen so fast. It hasn't been long since her brother left to go outside their village. She thought he'd meet her mate two or three years after that but she didn't expect him to find her so soon. She met Serina before and her brother even brought her home because she was sick for some reason. It never occurred to her that Serina would be her sister-in-law.
