As Thalassa stepped out of the car, Alaric's voice caught her off guard, "If you really love Lysander, you shouldn't let minor setbacks defeat you. True love means fighting through the storms to be together." Thalassa's breath hitched, but she continued to move, closing the car door behind her with a wave, "Goodbye, Mr. Falconer."
