Kieran waited until the boys were out of sight before gently opening the door and entering the room. Irene was deep asleep as she took slow breaths. Her expression was peaceful and gentle. She looked serene and Kieran's gaze softened on seeing her like this.

Padding lightly towards the bed, Kieran occupied the space beside her and leaned towards his putting all his weight on his right hand as he stared at her. "I am back, Irene." 

Laying down on his back, he stared at the ceiling for a few moments. The fear of losing her still lingered in his heart and he shuddered when he thought of the possibility of losing her again. But then, Warren's words flashed in his mind and he calmed down, albeit his worries did not vanish completely.

Until they found out how he could bind Irene to him, she was still in danger and there were still possibilities of him losing her again. As soon as the thought entered his mind, Kieran shook his head fervently and pulled Irene to him.
