The siblings are oblivious for a few moments to the knight\u2019s presence. Edward takes Summer by the shoulders, holding her firmly, away from him. \u201cWinter \u2014 she\u2019s fine, she\u2019s fine! \u2014 but she \u2014 there was a trouble \u2014 \u201d He turns a bit red in the face.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Edward, please just tell me.” Her voice cracks a bit.<\/p>\n

“She lost the baby.”<\/p>\n

“Wha\u2014when?”<\/p>\n

He grips her shoulders tighter. \u201cLast night. Father didn\u2019t want to send for you and have it be nothing. We thought it was nothing. She\u2019s fine, Summer! She\u2019s fine.\u201d<\/p>\n

In a quick movement, Summer frees herself from Edward\u2019s grip, turning away. Her face is pale against the flaming backdrop of her hair, and she looks at Mordred as though her world has somehow come apart.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

He had no experience in such matters and could offer nothing to make her pain go away.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Edward’s brows flicker, up and then down, clearly confused. “Summer, introduce me to your friend.” He lays an unfriendly emphasis on ‘friend’, and his eyes narrow at the way Summer puts her hand over Mordred’s and holds on.<\/p>\n

“I knew,” she murmurs to Mordred, voice pitched higher with incipient tears. “Last night. I knew. From so far. Why did I know?”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
