subtle hints
During their conversation, Elara subtly referenced Liora’s past. “Did you ever really know her? Before all this?” she asked, innocuously.
Caden’s frown deepened. Such comments made him question the foundation of his relationship with Liora. “What do you mean?”
he asked, trying to dismiss his uncertainty. Elara shrugged, her expression neutral. “People aren’t always what they seem,”
she replied, leaving him to mull over her words.
