—We can't tell anyone what happened Today.

—Ok.

—No one Casiopea.

—Ok.

—Not even Ciara and James.

—Ok.

—Stop with the "ok"!

—Sure.

—Do you find this amusing?

—Yes. – said with my mind.

He shook his head and continued driving.

We walked in silence through the corridor that led to our rooms and when we arrived at our doors he opened his and walked in saying —Come, we need to talk.

It was already dark and we would be called for dinner at any time. He sat down on the bed and rested his back against the wall. He tapped his hand on the bed next to him. I laid down beside him. I knew I should be tired, but I wasn't as tired as I should be. Yes, I felt the soreness in my body, I felt muscles I had never felt before, but I was not numb, I still felt the pain of the day in them.

We both looked straight at the window in front of the bed. The moon was shining bright and looked huge through the window. It was almost full.

—So that didn't go as I expected.

He said and we both burst into laughs.

—We'll try again tomorrow. –He said.

—Again?

—They won't remember anything. We can try once more, you should pretend not to be as powerful as you are.

—Ok...

—When Aaron tries to control you, just do as he said. Pretend it's working, and don't control him. He is ancient, no new awoken can do that.

—Ejem...

—No new awoken SHOULD be able to do that. Better?

—Yes sir.

—And, do go greeting hurricanes in front of a high priestess please. –He pushed my shoulder.

I laughed. —A what?

—Nora is at the top of her coven and even she can't do what you did Today.

—Ufff...– closed my eyes and thought how dumb I had been. —I really need to control these abilities.

—We'll do it, don't worry.

—Idris...

—¿Yes?

—Will they have a baby like me? Will he or she, be hunted all their life?

—Eidolons are rare, it's more likely that they try for their whole existence and never be able to birth a child.

I sighed. —That 's sad.

—Have you ever met and Eimpolo? Well, before...–I pointed at myself with both fingers.

—Eidolon.

—Yes, that. –Someone should really update the namings of all these things.

—And yes. I had. I married one.

I stayed in silence, thinking about what he'd said his darkest secret had been. I killed my wife. I knew I couldn't ask, he hadn't told me that information out of free will, so I shouldn't assume he wanted me to know it. I turned my head to the left and looked at him. He did the same and we both stared at each other.
