Alexander’s POV
Since Cassidy and I haven’t gone home in nearly four months, Fawkes comes to visit us instead. It’s fortuitous timing. I have something I would like to entrust him with.
I hear his footsteps from inside our quarters before Fawkes actually arrives, so I slip out to greet him first. He doesn’t know about Cassidy. No one outside of the Lupus royal family and Healer Trish knew about Cassidy’s new condition. I wanted to be the first to break the news to my best friend.
“Alex!” he called out when he saw me. I pulled him in for a hug.
“It’s good to see you, Fawkes,” I grinned.
“How is the husband?” he asks.
I couldn’t have stopped my smile from widening. “He’s wonderful,” I say. “That’s what I wanted to talk to you about actually.”
“Me?” Fawkes raises his eyebrows at me
