"You're not really bringing these half-breeds home, are you? You…
…You're trying to get more of them."
There was a silence between the two as Talia whispered those words to Rhys. Of course, the silence was as short as the distance between Talia's lips and his ears, as Rhys responded with a somewhat silent chuckle and pulled Talia even closer to him.
"I don't know what you're talking about, Talia," Rhys whispered back.
"There should be no secrets between us, Rhys Wilder," Talia, however, just tiptoed even higher and stuck her cheek on Rhys's, "And it truly is quite obvious that you're doing that — and I commend you for it. For someone who claims to hate all the politics, you're the biggest of us all."
"..." Rhys stayed quiet for a few seconds before just letting out a sigh; his warm breath, causing a slight tingle on Talia's ear, "I've grown tired of the world talking about me, Talia — it's time to give them something else to talk about."
