“This isn’t a joke kid,” he shook his head, moving off the wall and coming closer to the silver bars. Of course not too close because we know what silver does to people like us.

“What you had done risked us all.” he scolded. “Was she really worth risking everything? Our people, our kind?”

I don’t bat an eye as I answered truthfully. “She is. Always had been. I’d do it again if I have to. I’d protect her from everything.”

Henry shook his head in disbelief and then looked at me. Really looked at me. And then he clicked his tongue. “You and this girl…there are whispers around that you two are closer than you let
