As Raven watched Damien and Jasper disappear into the snowy path leading into town, she looked down at Cora, who was now playing with her tiny fingers. Her mind raced.
Cora just grew two years in a few days. I wonder what she’ll look like in another few days…
Jasper’s words echoed in her head. Wow, she grows fast.
Raven had forced a smile and responded, “Yes. Everyone grows at a different pace.” But deep down, she knew this wasn’t normal. It wasn’t just a growth spurt—it had something to do with her being special.
She shook off the thoughts for now and focused on the task at hand. “Alright, little one, let’s get you cleaned up.”
Cora giggled as Raven carried her to the bathroom, stripping off her clothes and placing her into the warm water.
“Warm,” Cora said, splashing lightly.
