I love this bit with her thoughts first:
Did you understand the diagram? “Because you weren’t interested in a second marriage until now?”
“Yes ... and because there are no Disputes requiring me to research the part of the Law dealing with marriage of the Supreme Ruler.”
Have you thought about doing that? “How many wives are you allowed?”
Kal looked uncomfortable. “More than one,” he admitted.
Have you thought about doing that with me? “How many more than one?”
“Lo-is,” he said on weary sigh.
Have you wondered if I think about doing that with you? “How many?”
I also love the simple declarative sentences that show two people beginning to communicate.
Keep it coming!
