Summary:
“You abandoned me.”
It’s not the first thing he wants to say. He says it anyway. A gag reflex; an instinct that runs much deeper than his cursed blood. He could’ve dismissed Guillermo, could have demonstrated his own sovereignty — I flourished without you, human; I took care of myself, all by myself — but his urgency shocks him out of his aloof facade.
He can’t look at Guillermo. He can’t look away, either. The stubbled cheeks are new, joined by tumbling black curls that frame his soft, sloping features. Exhaustion weighing on his shoulders, bone-deep. Hickory eyes older, and heavier.
“Was that not enough? What more could I have given you? What would have made you stay, that I had not already offered?”
