"Sylus—"  

"Avi."  

He stiffened. "I… Why are you looking at me like that? Did I do something wrong? You're making me want to shit my pants." 

"You knew about the threats, didn't you?" My voice was hoarse with betrayal. Of course, he was hiding something from me. Avi never hid things from me, he also wasn't a liar, and that's why I knew the moment he did. He was a terrible liar.

"Why?" My gaze went blank, my tone harsh in a way he'd never heard me use on him before. And it made him almost recoil. "Why did you hide it from me? Were you going to fix it for her without ever telling me? When she's my wife?"
