Chapter 354: Kingdom

"Same person," I confirmed, then let the transformation reverse, shrinking back down to regular Peter.

Sofia made a sound between a laugh and a sob. "I’ve been cuddling with a god? I fell asleep on a fucking deity? Why did you not show me this before?"

Amanda approached slowly, that sophisticated composure cracking to show genuine awe underneath. "Charlotte knew. This whole time, she knew both versions."
