Pieces of their conversation made scary sense now. Ghua wanted the criminals to stay on the surface because the fey could die a real death up there. However, he was only thinking of this world’s safety, not mine. What chance did humanity have against two powerful fey who didn’t care if people came back or not?

“You can’t leave them up there. We have to go back, now, to find them and to find my parents.”

“No, Mya. It is too dangerous.”

“It’s too dangerous for every uninfected human if those two stay up there.”

“Mya.”

“No,” I said, stepping away from him. “We came to your city and shared the information like you said. Now, you keep your promise. You said we would decide together. Telling me it’s too dangerous sounds a hell of a lot like you’re trying to decide for me, not with me.”

“Mya...” He stalked me, backing me to a wall.

My gaze snapped to his, and I saw the worry there.

“Molev has commanded everyone to return below. Ghua is heading out now to share the news.”

“What? Why didn’t you say that sooner? He could have taken me with him.” I looked at the door, wondering if I could catch Ghua.

“I said I would not share,” Drav said with a growl.

“Going with Ghua isn’t sharing. He could have taken me back home. Like I want. Like I’ve been begging you to do since the moment you tossed me over your back, you ass.”

“No.”

“What do you mean no? You don’t get to decide, Drav. I’m not one of you. Molev can’t keep me here, and neither can you.”

I slapped my hands to his chest, trying to push him away. Instead, he caught my hands and leaned in, his expression fierce.

“Don’t forget, Mya. Your people are destroying the surface to kill the infected. To kill anything that is not human. They do not care if they kill healthy humans while doing so.”

I scowled at him, hating he was right about that.

“Fine, my people are assholes. But so are yours. Just because your people can die on the surface, your leader is leaving the criminals and having the rest return without cleaning up the mess that you all created.” A sudden thought stopped me cold, and I stared up at Drav in shock.

“Did you know that would happen? That once Molev found out you guys could die up there, he would command everyone to stay underground? Is it one of the reasons you brought me here? To trap me?”

“No. I said I would keep you safe. With the bombs up there, it is safer to wait down here. If the source would have given you a crystal and Phusty would have returned…” He sighed. “Please stay until it is safe for you to go home.”

Like I had a choice without his help. We’d nearly died twice trying to reach the city.

A grunt sounded from behind Drav, a reminder we weren’t alone. Drav released me and stepped to the side to face Molev. Molev studied me and spoke.
