What now?
I turned my head to the side and met Diana's gaze. We knew that voice — Levina. And for her to shout meant she had probably seen us appear out of nowhere on the ground.
For her to be here meant she wasn't alone — that we had company.
El, you didn't foresee this?
I gritted my teeth when her silence greeted me. Of course, abandon me when I need you the most.
"Dora? Diana?"
Sinclair.
Oh goddess. Were they here for afternoon lovemaking? Did Levina somehow express her true feelings…–
My thought was cut off when I perceived a scent, one that overtook that of the forest floor and my vomit. Adam.
I sank my head back to the ground, wishing to be teleported back to Makeh's abode — all to no avail. I was sure the woman would be laughing the hell out of me.
"Aren't you two going to get up?" he finally spoke. "You are standing in our way."
Indifference. I loved it. It would make my work easier.
