“Are you hurt?” Alex asked.
Chris felt his chest seize with panic. “No, are you?” he asked quickly.
“No,” Alex replied. “My head hurts, but I’m guessing that’s because I was knocked out.”
“Yeah,” Chris said, trying to ignore the pounding in his skull. “Mine too.” He let out a frustrated breath. “Thanks a lot!”
There was a pause before Alex asked, “You’re blaming me for this?”
“You distracted me,” Chris accused. “If you hadn’t been there, I would have sensed the attack.”
“Yeah, sure,” Alex said, sarcasm thick in his voice. “You would have sensed it. You have great intuition, after all.”
“Shut up!” Chris barked.”

Kate was standing at the small table, sprinkling coriander leaves on the platters of chicken. She glanced at Alex and smiled, her blue eyes lighting up at the sight of her one and only brother-in-law.
“He’s very familiar,” Chris said. “I’m sure I have a brother who looks just like him.”
Alex rolled his eyes. “Ha ha,” he remarked and walked into the kitchen.”

“First of all, she wasn’t my girlfriend, we were nine,” Alex said. “And the only reason she liked you was because you used to show off your powers all the time.”

“Yeah, you did,” Joseph grinned.
“All the time,” Hadrian added, lifting his glass to take a sip.
“It was really annoying,” Neriah said.”
