"Ezra's right, you know," Griffin said. "If that zombie virus is wreaking havoc in Aster City, then we're needed back in the human realm."
They were all seated around a long table in the empty hall after reaching out to Ezra, discussing affairs.
Violet leaned forward, resting her hands on the table.
"Lila brought you four here initially as proof that the Fae meant me no harm. That I wasn't being held hostage or manipulated," she reminded them, her gaze moving from one face to another. "And your presence steadies me. It assures me that I'm not alone."
However, Roman read meaning into those words.
"So you want us to go back?" he asked, disappointment evident in his tone.
Asher countered immediately, his tone caustic. "Were you planning on staying in the Fae realm forever?"
"Yeah," Roman shot back. "The unbonded one gets to stay behind."
"Guys," Violet pleaded with her eyes. She didn't want them fighting.
Roman looked away, his jaw flexing, while Asher remained cool as usual.
