“You’re bringing Guinie to the wedding, right?” Tristan asked me as we stood in line for coffee down the street from Camelot Records. We had a meeting with Kaye to discuss the world tour. I was actually beginning to think it was a good idea. Throwing myself back into the music might be the direction I needed.

“Or are you bringing Ana?” Tristan spit, a definite bit of disgust in his question.

“No, I’m not bringing Ana,” I snapped back at him. I was still angry that he had taken Guinevere from the house. I had hoped Guinie and I could talk the next day. We just needed some separation. A lot had been shared in a little time, and we needed to let things simmer. When I went to Guinie’s room to find an oxygen tank, an IV machine, and an empty bed, I knew she was gone for good. I didn’t know that her protectors had been Tristan and Ireland.

We were silent for a moment while the barista made our coffees. We remained silent as we walked down the avenue to Pendragon Empires. Inside the classical architecture building, Camelot Records was housed. My insides fluttered with nervous excitement. We had already crushed the last touches of the album in the weeks immediately following my return. That was tying up the past; this was on to discussing the future. There was still the issue that I couldn’t play and we might need to find someone to replace that position in the band. I was beginning to look forward with a twinge of enthusiasm.

“I can’t take Guinie to the wedding,” I finally spoke. “We broke up.”

“I know,” he said quietly. Of course he knew; he was the one to help her escape my house, which still pissed me off.

“You know, I’m not trying to defend her. Defend them…” he began and stopped when I leveled him with a squinted glare. I watched him run his hand through his sandy colored hair. I wondered who else knew of Guinie’s infidelity with Lansing. Obviously, Lansing, Lila, and Guinevere, of course. Did the whole band know and no one thought to tell me? Like a cuckolded man, I was the last to find out.

“I’m not justifying what happened,” he started again. “But between your disappearance and cold shoulder…” I narrowed him with a menacing stare again, but he raised his hand to continue.

“She was really distraught over the baby.”

I stopped in the middle of the lobby of Pendragon Empire. What the…?

“Distraught over your baby? Why?” I couldn’t understand why Guinevere would be upset that Tristan was having a baby with Ireland.

“Not my baby. Your baby.”

The weight of his words filled the cavernous space of the open lobby, and so did the mental sound of little feet never heard.

“My. Baby.” My words felt foreign and tumbled out of my mouth slowly. I swallowed hard and stared at him. Surely, he was misinformed. Surely, he was not telling me the truth. The expression on my face displayed my disbelief.
