Damn, now she had another sibling? Leonica had to suppress the sigh that was threatening to slip pass her lips as she patted her father on the shoulder, before proceeding to replace her father, determined to calm her down. Soon enough, she found the blonde standing in front of the small pond in their garden, feeding the fishes,
She quietly settled beside her, folding her hand at her back as she pondered her words.
"I'm not angry at your father, Leonica." Her mother spoke, her words more surprising than the fact that she had spoken first.
"You're not?
Cassandra shook her head "I'm not. Rather, I'm insecure.vulnerable."
"Vulnerable?" Leonica repeated. "But why?
Her mother hesitated for a bit before speaking. "As you know, your father and I's marriage is an actonged marriage, it was never love at first sight and it took a while until we both developed genuine feelings for one another, so when I found out he had acheld, with the woman he loved, I feared...."
She couldn't complete the sentence, but Leonica mew what she wanted to say.
"There's nothing to fear, mom," she reassured as she placed her hand on Cassandra's shoulder. "I'm sure father still loves you and that he would never want anyone else."
Her motheroffered a light smile and turned to face the fishes again
Silence settled between them, a comfortable one, but it was broken by Leonica's curious words.
"Father's exmistress, who was she?"
Cassandra Shrugged. "I didn't know Alice Rosewood all that well, but="
"Rosewood?" Leonica's ears perked up at the oddly familiar name. Cassandra nodded at the question and a feeling suddenly settled in Leonica's stomach "Father's love child, what is her name?" Cassandra thought for a while. "If I remember correctly, he said Allor picked the name trene, Irene Rosewood."
