She knew he was her brother. There was no doubting that. When she stared at him, she saw her own features mirrored. The fair hair, the facial structure… They were alike. She knew that logically.

But, Elyon hadn't grown up alongside Phobos. The only family she had known were her parents that had raised her on Earth. How she felt towards Phobos wasn't that same familial affection that she had for her parents.

She felt affection towards the man, and she felt admiration. She loved the way he doted on her, and taught her the ways of her kingdom. Her heart soared whenever Phobos helped her with her powers, or approved of her new projects. He made her feel all sorts of ways.

Elyon cherished those moments when he would pat her reassuringly on the shoulder. When his hand would brush her arm, or her hand. A warm hug.

Her heart would race in his presence, and at first she attributed it to the excitement of being in a new world. But she didn't get that woozy feeling when she was alone in her room. Only when she was with Phobos. It was similar to when she had first met Cedric.

Elyon would have squashed any of those feelings down on her own… but then, Phobos began to indulge the child. He knew that it was wrong, but it was also wrong to steal the powers and throne of the rightful heir, wasn't it? He didn't care for right or wrong. He cared about reaching his goal. Catering to the girl's growing feelings would help achieve said goal. And if he were to get an extra thrill out of it along the way… what did it matter?
