“He’s being sentimental isn’t he?” Abasi starts to laugh.
“You know what?” Loker stands up from his seat. “I don’t need to be treated this way. I’ll go find some other people to join with me. I’ll start a new party! And we’ll have more fun than I ever did with the likes of you.”
I yank Loker’s coat and pull him back into his seat. “Sit down. You’re being dramatic. You don’t mean that.”
He grumbles something under his breath then chugs the rest of his wine down. “What would you even do without me?”
“Rest easier at night.” Abasi throws out.
Loker mockingly laughs at him. “I mean it. I’m the pretty one, I’m the classy one, I make sure the rest of you sound good!” He slams his empty goblet down on the table. “Without me, you’re all just a bunch of mismatched former criminals.”
“I was never a criminal,” Emory murmurs.
“Why are you pouting like this?” I ask. “It’s rather disarming from you.”
“I had plans ok!” Loker huffs. “And this stupid town full of it’s beautiful orcs is messing everything up!”
“Oh,” I chuckle. “So there is something about Mika, isn’t there.”
“No!” Loker scoffs. “She’s just a beautiful distraction, that’s all.”
“I heard and she and her sister are traveling midwives.” Abasi says, scratching behind his ear. “Apparently, her sister is especially sought after. I heard she was called in to help birth one of the royal Rakshasa children.”
