A couple passed in front of them and Ayden remembered she was supposed to meet Connor later. She wondered if he was home yet. Zoya's comment made Ayden laugh, purple or grow fangs - that seemed simple compared to what would really happen if she didn't learn to control it.
Ayden smiled. "Nothing like that."
Ayden ordered a large coffee, black nothing in it. It was warm and caffinated. She probably shouldn't have it this late, but she didn't intend on going to sleep too soon. Connor would be home soon, and she had a late shift the next day, so she had to readjust her schedule. It sucked working weird hours every day. But it was her life now.

Ayden recalled her own struggles in the army. It had not been easy, but she managed to conquer her own misconceptions and her own anxiety.
Ayden wondered how long Zoya had been experiencing things. "How long has the unexplained been happening?"
Ayden smiled. "Nothing like that."
