Capítulo 259: Restless

Nazneen, Ares, his men, and the messengers all gathered with Ravina, Saul and Brenna and explained what they were doing and how they set up the trials. Ravina listened carefully and took a look at the questions and the plans, not expecting anything less from Ares and his men. 

But there was something about Nazneen as well. Something about the way she spoke and carried herself had changed slightly. She seemed more confident and relaxed, mirroring Ares, who sat beside her. He interfered as little as possible and allowed Nazneen to speak most of the time. She would look his way when unsure of something, and he would give her a subtle nod if she was on the right track. 

They must have had a tough night based on the bruises on his and his men's faces. This made her a bit uneasy about leaving Malachi behind, as if she could protect him. She would probably only endanger him even more.
