Morgan choked, "You mean...Cal and your sister..."
"Yeah, they had been together since Cal was initiated but he broke it off halfway through his last assignment," Liam looked at her, "which I would assume would be you."
"Will I be meeting Liadan?" Morgan asked.
Liam nodded, "I'm shocked she's not here now, I know she was supposed to be. She's also a member of Amyrath."
Morgan looked down, "Will she hate me terribly?"
"No," Liam emphasized by shaking his head, "She was always very understanding of Cal. She had to be."
"Because of assignments like me," Morgan finished.
"Pretty much," Liam admitted, then his eyes flashed to the side of the room, "There she is now."
Morgan looked over to see a petite blonde entering the room, brown eyes scanning the room until they settled on Liam. She walked purposefully over, casually hugging Liam.
"You must be Morgan," the girl said with a friendly hand offered.
Morgan took it gently shaking, "And you must be Liadan."
"Yep, I've heard about you from Cal," Liadan told her.
Morgan grimaced slightly, "I wish I could say the same. I am so sorry about how this all ended up."
Liadan shrugged slightly, "Liam's told me about your situation."
"You mean the pregnancy and all?" Morgan said.
"Uh, actually I was referring to Hunter. You're pregnant? Is that why you are staying with Cal?" Liadan asked.
"Yes," Morgan replied.
"It's hard to have children so young," Liadan said softly.
Morgan heard a wisp of empathy, "Have you any children?"
"A son," Liadan replied, glowing. "Bran. He has the most beautiful eyes."
"Are they golden, like Cal's?" Morgan asked, slightly entranced by the obvious love she had for her son.
Liadan blushed, "No, they're green."
"Green?" Morgan asked, perplexedly. "Green is a recessant gene and both you and Cal have dominant alleles."
Liadan took a deep breath, "Morgan, Bran isn't Cal's. He's Hunter's."
"Yeah, they had been together since Cal was initiated but he broke it off halfway through his last assignment," Liam looked at her, "which I would assume would be you."
