I'm not afraid of storms,

Emwe I suppose should tell them Ly’s name, since he’s the only one who really knows it?
The information came flying at her all at once and Cercelee was at a loss for what to feel. Suddenly the old feeling came over her. The mask which she had donned so often in the past, able to lie perfectly to anyone and everyone, which she had thrown out months ago, or so she had believed. She wore it now. Her eyes flitted from Alexey, to Emwe, and finally to Firefly, who seemed to show up even before she had been invited. Her voice was calm and kind, her eyes just curious. It did not matter how she really felt, even if she wanted to take her anger out on Firefly her body just wouldn’t let her. It would be too much.
"Why? Why did you take them? Why did you lie, to all of us?" It made sense now, Cercelee had been suspicious, Firefly had seemed too unfazed by her children’s absence. Haku had sworn he hadn’t left the children alone, there had been no stranger’s scents in the land. It did not make sense, the way she had punished the whole pack, Dahlia de Mai had not deserved it. Turning back to Alexey, trusting her word more at the moment than Firefly’s, her voice was the same. Almost hypnotic. “Do you know the name of the male who had the puppies?”
