"Jane and Derek want a committment from me-to one or the other
Houses."  Looking up at Philip, she gave him a lop-sided smile.  "I
don't blame them; really I don't.  They've both been far more
understanding than they needed to be...even when I didn't deserve it."

  Looking down at her hands clasped on the table in front of her, her
voice grew quiet.  "It just...hasn't been an easy thing to decide.  And
this whole situation with Amber...all I can think of is Ethan..." her
voice trailed off as she struggled to put it all into words.

Philip remembered the times they had spent talking about the young man that
had died at the hands of a demon, former Legacy member, Reed Horton.  It was
nothing less than the fire of vengence that had brought Kristin back into
the Legacy to get back at him.  Thankfully, it had been something more that
had kept her.

"An' now they want an answer." he surmised and sighed thoughtfully "Have ye,
well have ye considered a leave of absence te think it over?"
