Chapter 59 Waiting Game

Aileen muses over everything they’ve spoken about. She has a purpose in life; it may be a crazy purpose but it’s still a purpose. Before all of this she had nothing; her friends weren’t actually her friends and she’d never felt close to her family. Her so-called friends, and even her boss, would tell her sister and mum everything. Her head shakes, it feels weird knowing she is about to have children and they don’t even know.
Her mind wonders to Yasmine. Was she destined to be the one? Was she meant to be Aileen, and something had just gone wrong in the process? Was she the one destined to love Cayson, have his child and bring the worlds together? She thinks about what she’d be doing now had Gwenael not told Cayson she was safe. Would she be alone without any help? Would Cayson have eventually killed her? She can’t imagine a life without Cayson, and yet she can’t understand why it has to be her when Yasmine was the same in every way. Sure, Yasmine had known she was a witch from the start, she had fallen in love with Cayson and hated that the witches turned on her for it. She wanted revenge on them for it. Was that it, though? She feels her head shaking, what if Yasmine was meant to be the one, but she was so full of hate and sadness from the witches hating her for loving Cayson that it made her turn into one of them and Serliciaus had to come up with a second option?
“What’s up Aileen?” Zander glances to her worried, seeing tears in her eyes.
