The Pact
Today was truly an interesting day, Aedan told Tido and Princess Leia as he walked into the little two-bedroom they shared. Of course, they both just looked at him, wagging their little tails and expecting their treats. Aedan Bledsoe had just returned from his Aunt’s attorney where he’d received notification of his inheritance from his Great-Grandfather. He’d only met the man a few months earlier when she explained that he’d mysteriously arrived from Ireland to put his affairs in order. 102 years old and at death’s door, the man demanded he be seen, although he’d not had contact with the US side of the family for over 60 years. In all his 23 years, no one had ever mentioned that the family had ties to Ireland. Aedan’s mother and father had died tragically in a strange accident when Aedan was only 3 years old and was never told of his grandparents by his Aunt, let alone a living great-grandfather!
