They were moving. They were moving soon. He was going to get Sasha and bring her back and she would be safe and Zan would be safe and for once, please, God, could they all just be fucking safe!

Zev had barely been able to breathe when he'd realized that he'd left Zan with the healers in the Tree City while he'd gone searching for Sasha—he'd already been late for a meal, and Zev knew that wasn't okay with what their son was battling.
