***Zane***
“Welcome to River Moon,” Aurora smiles, her golden eyes scanning us. “You must be Talia,” she asks, sticking her hand out to my mate.
Talia stares blankly at Aurora’s outstretched hand, her heart beating wildly in her chest before she reluctantly shakes it.
“Nice to meet you,” Tali mutters, her voice clipped as she adjusts Kota in her arms. “This is my son, Dakota.”
Kota sticks his thumb in his mouth and waves with his other hand, Aurora waving at him. Talia then points over to Agnes and I.
“That’s Zane and Agnes. Zane is… my mate,” she adds bitterly. “And Agnes is his mother. She is deaf and they are both mute.”
Aurora’s eyes sweep over to Agnes and I as she waves a hello. Agnes shyly replies with a sign before hiding behind me and lowering her head, shaking like a leaf.
