"Is he back yet?" Rylee asked, rubbing the sleep out of her eyes
.
Kieran smiled and sat beside her on the bed. "No, but he is safe."
"Are you sure?"
"One hundred percent. I didn't go looking for him because I didn't sense any danger around him. He is twice as strong as he once was."
"He is?"
"Yes, I noticed it before he left. He has merged his powers and that means he can use any without taking its form first. He is unstoppable."
"What about that power?"
"That I don't know but he was able to stop himself yesterday, I am sure he had made progress with it. Don't worry, sleep some more, I will come tell you if there is anything new."
Rylee nodded and closed her eyes but grabbed his hand when he stood up to leave. "I thought I lost you last night, please don't ever do that again." She opened her already tear-filled eyes to look at him pleadingly.
