"Yes my hair is natural. I am not from Adela. My coloring comes from my distant fae heritage," she sighed. She did not like reminders of her mother. Yet, she could hear her mother's screeching tones chastising her about the state of her hair. 'Begone out of my head mother. You are not welcome now.'
Moving more firmly into his lap, Tiraris took Caden's arms and wrapped them around her middle so that she was now trapped within his embrace. It was a while before she asked her next question. She had never done this before, cuddled with someone. It was comfortable and soothing. She also felt like staying there with him forever. 'Sister. Family. Payment. Fool!' her thoughts rang clear and biting. "Do you have family Caden?" she asked her voice cracking slightly.
