Lucy

“What is going on up there? Is it safe for me to return?”

He looks at me with his impenetrable aquamarine gaze, and then forces a smile to his lips. Triton rarely smiles, and for some intangible reason, I don’t trust this one.

“It’s not safe," he says. “Not yet.”

“Is it… is it bad?”

“It’s a war, Lucy,” he says. “Wars are never pleasant.”

“Did you see my family?”

He swallows. “Yes,” he says. “They’re safe and well.”

He’s lying to me. I know it in my gut. Unlike certain other trickster gods, Triton is not a good liar. I doubt he is used to doing it. Who has he ever had to lie to?

I don’t want him to lie to me, but I also don’t want to accuse him of lying. That would give the game away. He’d know that I don’t believe him. And if he knew that, he’d tie me up again. Because now, I have to leave.

“Do you like the red dress or the green one?” I change the topic of discussion.

“I like anything on you. But I prefer it all off you.” He follows the change of pace gratefully. Now I am sure he is lying. And I know exactly what I have to do.
