Jasper wanted to console Alyssa but found himself at a loss for words. So, he remained silent.

"Disappointed, aren't you?" Alyssa sniffled as she smiled bitterly.

"Not at all."

Perhaps he had been expecting too much.

As a woman, she was intelligent, capable, and a strategist for victory. Beyond that, she boldly stepped forward to fight against the dark forces. She was strong and perfect as she was why should he expect her to be anything more? Yet, seeing Alyssa's vulnerable side unsettled him.
