"No!" Kamila, Salaark, and Leegaain said. The first one in embarrassment and the other two in outrage.
"Just yesterday, Lith and I received a report warning me that the bounty on my head is still in place. Hence we assumed that as soon as the news of Lith going away with most of his allies spread, someone would try to kill me. It's the reason we… mixed business and pleasure."
"That's a self-serving way to put it, to use an understatement." Leegaain scoffed. "You two manipulated us Guardians. Plain and simple."
"As much as it pains me to say this, I agree with the old lizard." Salaark grunted. "You exploited our vow to protect Lith's children and the woman who bears them to solve your problems at our expense. Shame on you, Featherling."
"Couldn't you stop them?" Zinya tilted her head in confusion.
"Stop a couple from expressing their love? Preposterous!" Leegaain scoffed.
"Then if this situation angers you, why did you intervene?"
