Once the double heartbeat of a Time Lord had been a constant drumming warning in her head.
Now when she encountered it, it was in her children, their warm psychic connection against her.
Athena loved the comfort of those double heartbeats, as did Matt.
“I’m confused with human patients now,” he joked as he got ready for bed. “I think they only have half a heart.”
“Oh, no,” Athena said, crawling into bed with him for his nearness. “I know from experience, that one heartbeat is the biggest one.” She laid her ear on his chest just to hear it.
