tired eyes shifted to the other side of the room to look at the blonde, lips pursing with a sigh. ❝ given how the last twenty four hours have gone, are you that surprised? ❞ talia’s tone is almost completely out of anger, but not at margot. she’s still trying to wrap her head around everything. theo now a vampire. jack wanting to kill him. taking the risk of bringing him to the fairmonts. the day has just been too much. sure, she’s tough. however when it involved her children? they were her weakness. absolutely nothing could stop her from protecting them, even from jack. ❝ i’m sorry. you’re helping me. you don’t deserve to deal with my anger. ❞ talia swallowed, hand lifting to wipe her face.
it’s expected, the fire that comes with a lashing from the hunter’s words. this was all new and even while she was helping theo, she couldn’t expect everything to change overnight, not when it was clear that talia was still hurting. ❛ talia, i would be more concerned if you weren’t upset. ❜ the legacy is remarkably calm in the situation, not just because she’s already had to guide sebastian through the process, but because if jack is the threat looming over their head -- it wouldn’t be a problem. ❛ everything considered, i expected you to still be threatening me right now. ❜ margot takes a seat next to the other woman, her movements are slow, giving talia enough time to leave if it’s what she needs. ❛ theo will be safe here, but you are more than welcome to stay if you feel the need to keep a closer eye on him. there’s a guest room beside the one he’ll be staying in. ❜
