"Did you know the truth?" Kieran asked, glancing at Lucien.
Lucien shook his head. "Delia never confessed. I thought Leia deserved to hear it first, whatever it was," he said, keeping his voice low.

Lucien's brows furrowed. "I've heard the name… when I was a child," he admitted, casting a glance at the others. "But I don't think Ronan or Kieran have."
Ronan gave a slight shake of his head. "Never heard it," he said, and Kieran echoed the same.
