"Emmet is running away from his responsibilities," Maximus complained as he followed Norman and me outside. We needed some fresh air, and I still hadn't decided what to do about Altan needing my help.
"Or maybe it's something else entirely," I said, and the two of them stopped to give me a look.
"He told me he's not in love with her anymore," I stated, the two of them now standing in front of me, shoulder to shoulder, watching me with such intense expressions that for a moment, I forgot what I was going to say.
"When did he tell you that?" Maximus asked, instantly folding his arms across his chest.
"When I was in his room," I replied. "He told me he wants me, not her."
Norman immediately started shaking his head in disagreement, which surprised me a bit since they had told me I could be with all my mates.
