Kelly fought back a grin. "Well, back when we were in Solmaris, Darren actually cried because of you."

Zev furrowed his brow, trying to recall the moment. "I don't remember that..."

Kelly had almost wondered if Darren had developed a thing for Zev-if only she hadn't known he was straight, with a girlfriend waiting for him back home.

"They all thought you were terrifying," Kelly added. “They said you were cold and barely spoke."

Thus, his name was Zion.
