The elders all looked to the door and a frown fell on the great-grandfather's face. He shot a suspicious look to Leilani before speaking, "Enter."
Leilani sighed in relief. He had actually made it in time.
Timaeus walked into the room, holding a stack of documents in his hands. Like Leilani had done a few minutes before, he bowed at the waist. "Great-grandfather, elders."
The older man wrinkled his brow, casting a suspicious look at Leilani. "Why have you come here at this time?"
As he spoke these words, Lexine noticed that his eyes had begun to change color. Before, they were a bright blue color, however, as he spoke, they turned golden. He did not even hide these from Lexine whose jaw dropped.
Although she had her suspicions, she was not one to carelessly jump into conclusions unless she had all the facts at hand. Seeing as Leilani had kept it a secret from her, she also did not dare make any careless assumptions.
