Aila stopped watching Gabriel's back as he still faced out the window; her gaze slowly drifted to the coffee table in front of her as she processed everything the vampire told them. The trio's past was such a violent tragedy; she wondered how the brothers were so calm when they faced each other earlier. But Aila knew from spending time with both of them that neither was stupid, and everything they did was calculated.
However, she imagined more of a response from Cassius. After hearing about his past and from their conversation prior, she knew that was the first time the brothers had seen each other since Gabriel locked Cassius away in the tomb. He did mention how he watched Gabriel over the years, so perhaps tonight was long awaited with a dramatic effect of throwing her straight into the middle of it.
