Imani was sitting at home on the sofa.
In her arms, she held two small children who- after a prolonged struggle- finally collapsed on top of each other.
Imani was afraid to let out a breath of relief or risk waking them.
Odessa and K'ael were easy babies to care for. Usually.
But for some reason, the past few weeks had made them restless. Odessa wasn't sleeping through the night like she normally did. And K'ael wasn't eating like he normally would either.
No one really needed to guess the reason why.
Imani had never felt such a complex set of emotions in her life.
She wanted her son home so badly that she could scream. Abaddon needed to be here with his family.
And yet, there was also a part of her that did not want him to come back just yet.
She feared what would happen if he found out Thea was missing.
Imani had raised her son in three different timelines now. She knew the boy like the back of her hand.
