"What if my hands never fully heal? What if it stays like this for the rest of my life?" Zev's voice trembled with frustration, his eyes reddened.

Gary wanted to reassure him, but looking at Zev's scarred, misshapen fissers, he couldn't bring himself to offer empty promises. The truth was that Zev's recovery was uncertain.

"I have to go." Zev insisted, clenching his fists so tightly that his fingers turned pale. "Unless you manage to capture Lucas soon, I won't wait. If he's not caught in three months, I'll go after him myself"

Pressing a hand to her chest, she glanced up at him, about to ask why he was just standing there. But when she saw the emotion in his gaze, the words caught in her throat.

"Did Gary scold you?" she asked softly.

Zev shook his head and took the trash from her hands. "I'll take care of it."
