Chapter 138 - How Deep?

Inside one of the Moonlight Sect's rooms, Lyra sat at the front in meditation. Her eyes were closed, her breathing steady.

Maya and Cipher sat together a short distance away, observing her.

"You didn't answer my question," Maya said quietly.

"Hmm?" Cipher turned to look at her.

"Are you and her really just friends?"

Lyra's face twitched slightly, though her eyes remained closed.

Cipher sighed. "I suppose saying 'just friends' was an understatement. Lyra and I have a very deep connection."

"How deep?" Maya pressed.

He looked around, as if searching for the right words. "She's the closest person to me."

A faint redness appeared on Lyra's face before disappearing almost instantly.

Cipher smiled at Maya. "Why do you keep asking about this? Are you jealous?"

"I'm not jealous!" she said quickly.

"Mmhmm," he said, clearly unconvinced. "Well, my teammates are also very close to me, of course."

She nodded, seemingly satisfied with that answer.
