“I miss you during the day,” Andrev whispered, “but I know you’re not really here.”
Kana stroked a hand through his hair, and Andrev had to swallow hard, because it felt real.
“I miss you too,” she said. “But don’t be so quick to join me. You have work to do, don’t you?”
Andrev nodded, nuzzled closer to her. “I know I do,” he breathed against her skin. “But if I do it - if I kill Kir and Savva and the rest, doesn’t that make me the monster they always said I was?”
“No,” Kana said. “It makes you human.”
