The fact that Conor’s mother was related to Kansas bothered her a lot more than it should have. She had the strong urge to ruin Firefly’s reputation by telling her friend all about what she’d done; how the witch had sent her own children away. How she was also responsible for Conor’s near death experience. Alexey was clearly ill at ease, and part of her wished she could’ve confided in the Lt. General. “Firefly was excluded from Dahlia de Mai,” she said quietly, turning to see if Conor was paying any attention to what they were saying. It didn’t seem like it; the boy had his own problems to deal with.

Honey-hued eyes widened in shock when her protégé voiced a firm “no” to her next question. “Conor!” Regret instantly washed over her; her body tensed and her gaze immediately sought Savina’s. “I’m so sorry,” she murmured, feeling incredibly embarrassed over the boy’s actions. He wasn’t ready to socialize with other pups yet, she understood that now. Although the Acer wanted to reprimand the Lillium’s child for the hurtful words he’d thrown at Cambria, she simply couldn’t. Not in front of everyone. “We’re leaving… now,” She stood up then, sparing Savina and her children an uncertain smile before nudging Conor towards the exit. He was in big trouble.
