“Sometimes, they get tired.”

“We'll be back tomorrow to see the plants.” They say as they go off, presumably to find Alexander.
After they walk away, Victoria and | look at each other before we both burst into laughter. “Well, it’s never boring in this pack.” Victoria says, pulling off her gloves.
“And let's be honest. I’ve never seen a garden that looked this incredible. They might be a bit strange, but you can’t deny that they are useful.” | say, before turning to head back inside.

“Tula?”
She startles at my voice. “Oh, Lady Luna Grace. Good morning.” She quickly wipes her eyes before looking up at me.

She sits back down and sniffles smore before answering. “You saw Leilani and Lolana?” “Yes, they have a human size now that they've mated with Alexander.”
She nods, not looking at me. She reaches out to touch the wilting flower again. “I’m very happy for them. This is what they’ve always wanted. What we all want. To be loved forever, to be good mates.” She sniffles again.
“Did something happen between you and Thomas?” | ask gently.
“No. Thomas is wonderful. He’s very kind and so sweet to me.” She says, touching another wilting flower.
“Then, what is it?”
“I'm broken.” She says and her voice breaks.

She leans her head against my chest, picking at her strange clothing. “But now he’s seen what can happen when we're not broken.”

missing my wing.”
“Luna! Luna, have you seen.” A panicked Thomas comes running up to me. When he sees Tula
in my lap he stops.
“Tula, I've been looking everywhere for you.” He says, gently pulling her from my lap.
As she starts crying, he holds her close. “Tula. I'm sorry, | didn’t know. It’s okay Tula, | don’t care that you can’t change form.” “I'm going to let you two talk.” | say, running my hand down Tula’s hair.
