Alex sat transfixed as Wren sang and had to force himself to concentrate again when the song was over. It was such a tragic tale with a mournful melody that he almost had tears in his eyes.
As he came back to himself, he cleared his throat and made a mental note to definitely talk to Lara. Wren was amazingly good but there was something else there. Something only another siren would notice. But he wasn't going to say anything about it now. He would hate to ruin the mood.
"It was sad but it was beautiful too. And not just the song but the way you played it. Thank you." He took a sip of his own wine before he spoke again. "I will definitely do some research for you. Maybe even where the variations come from. It would be my pleasure."
He contemplated for a moment, looking down into his wine as he couldn't quite meet Wren's eyes at the moment. Something was happening with his emotions and he couldn't quite figure out what. "I'd say I'd want to know. When my oldest brother was killed, my family made sure to get word to me before I could hear about it in the media. I can't imagine what it would have been like hearing about it from someone else or just not knowing."
