Skyla's body stilled at his sudden question though she knew that this question was bound to rise. She glanced at Ezekiel, who was looking at her seriously, and asked softly, "Would you believe me if I said I didn't know?"
A crease formed on his forehead as he deliberated on her question while Skyla waited patiently for his reply. After what seemed like ages, Ezekiel nodded slowly making her smile widely while others protested against his decision instantly.
"But Ezekiel -" Casper's protest died in his throat when he saw Ezekiel raise his hand effectively shutting him up.
Ignoring his crossed expression, Ezekiel turned his eyes towards the petite human and said, "I will believe you"
Skyla let out a breath as she relaxed and shook her head, "I don't know"
Ezekiel nodded as he leaned against his chair while Xavier looked at them before exchanging exasperated glances with Casper and Elena.
He massaged his temples and shook his head, 'How could he just believe her?'
