Bab 290: Unspoken

~ ZEV ~

Have you seen Kyelle this morning?

The words seemed to seep into Zev's head, as if Lhars wasn't entirely sure he wanted to share them. Or perhaps was frightened of the answer? What had happened to Kyelle? Zev stiffened.

No. Is she okay? Zev asked, trying not to put his Alpha authority behind it. He didn't want to break the uneasy peace they'd found. But he was worried.

I'm sure she's fine, Lhars replied. But she's pissed off with me. Avoiding me, I think.

Well good luck when she's got her hackles up. What did you do this time?

Lhars' chewing slowed for a moment. It was the only warning Zev had that this wasn't a moment to tease his brother.

I told her about my feelings for her. Tried to kiss her.

Zev had to drop his own head so the others wouldn't see the shock painted all over his face. Lhars had actually approached her?
