Zach sat in Alzara's lap for a while, enjoying the warmth and comfiness of being hugged like he was a child again. But talking with Alzara wasn't the only thing he had to do during the trip. He still wasn't sure what she could do or what his contract skill was exactly, but that could wait until he needed to know.
He had already put off something else, which he should have dealt with as soon as it was a problem.
So, he gently escaped Alzara's arms and sat on his own ass again, after which he asked Alzara to switch places with Yanael.
Zach could tell Alzara was reluctant to leave his side, but he could also tell that it would be nice for her to no longer have to bend her neck just to fit inside the carriage.
Without a word, Yanael and Alzara changed seats. Yanael slipped in, and Alzara climbed out.
Yanael sat with her back ramrod straight and her hands on her lap with her gaze lowered.
"Yanael."
"Yes, Master."
