Gavriel asked after a moment, “Why didn’t Aelin offer me the blood oath?” The male hadn’t asked these weeks. And Rowan wasn’t sure why Gavriel inquired now, but he gave him the truth. “Because she won’t do it until Aedion has taken the oath first. To offer it to you before him … she wants Aedion to take it first.” “In case he doesn’t wish me to be near his kingdom.” “So that Aedion knows she placed his needs before her own.” Gavriel bowed his head. “I would say yes, if she offered.”
Of course Aelin wants Aedion to feel wanted and appreciated. And of course Gavriel would say yes 🥹
