“Bit of a waste of her several days‘ worth of tears now that we know Nollace is still alive. right?” Waylon finished.

Colton rose to his feet. “I better get to the office.” His brother considered him.

“How‘s Freyja holding up?” Colton paused in his tracks. His tone was hard to decipher when he asked, “What‘s with the concern?
