(Ryker’s POV)

Gabriel and I walked side by side, the boy was asleep somewhere else in the house, but his presence lingered in my mind.

It was strange, no…unbelievable that he survived everything that happened.

“It’s weird,” I muttered, breaking the silence. “A kid surviving that kind of catastrophe… it doesn’t make sense.”

Gabriel glanced at me, his expression calm. “There are certain miracles in life, Ryker. Maybe the Moon Goddess pitied him and chose to spare him.”

I’ve already been an ambassador before, so it’s not new to me.” He said smugly. “Yeah, and the last time you were there you caused all sorts of trouble that resulted in you being banned there for a whole year and your title revoked.” Ronan said causing us to laugh. “Tch!
