Kate POV
Things almost seem normal, even after I watched my husband leave to go look for Alexander. I felt at ease for the first time in a long time. Even though he left me to go to the old imperial camp, I feel safe, and I feel like he is safe. I know Erick and Desire can handle Macon. I hope Alexander is alive and can return home.
I sit down at the kitchen table with Cassie and Austin. I drink a cup of coffee and watch Austin beam as he interacts with Cassie. "He loves you so much," I say to her.
"He is a special kid. I love him," Cassie responds.
"I can tell that," I say. Cassie feeds Austin a snack while I sip my coffee. Austin's nanny leaves for the night, leaving only the three of us in the house.
"John usually checks in on us at night, and I have not heard from him or Trip," Cassie says.
"Trip is probably enjoying his new baby and not worried about what we are doing over here," I say.
