Noctisardor Bypass How would it ever get me by?

Anselm’s next words landed like a slap to the face. She had treated Etienne unkindly but what had Druid ever done to him to deserve such a statement? Perhaps it was a karmic slap for uttering words that were not hers to share, even though his own implied he didn’t even believe them.

Anyway, his reaction to her accusation captured the whole of her attention. He immediately denied it. Druid’s eyes narrowed, though not in an accusatory way. She was quite literally thinking on her feet. If Anselm had feelings for Etienne, then… it wouldn’t really explain a whole lot, honestly.

What is he to you then? And what’s Heda to you, for that matter? And don’t you dare accuse me of being in love with my own sister…
