Qui thumbs his chin thoughtfully. "I was going to suggest that you carry the news to your sire, but you might as well come along and get a look at the situation firsthand. At least then Eden will be kept up to date since she seems intent on blocking me out." He gestures at Jordan. "You're coming with us."
"Oh, okay," Jordan says, eyeing you. "Do you mind, Agad the Imperishable?"
"You were the one who found her," you say. "It makes sense for you to come along."
One of Qui's attachés grunts something under his breath. The Sheriff nods. "And we can't have you running off to anyone else to spread the news. This needs to be handled carefully."
"I wasn't going to tell anyone else," Jordan protests. "Unless Agad the Imperishable suggested it, anyway." She glances at you.
A sudden pang of Hunger stops you in your tracks as you're walking through the door. The past few days have been unusually trying. Before you do anything else, you need to feed.
"I know that look," Qui says. "You have someone waiting for you?"
You nod.
"Good. I'll meet you out front when you're done." Qui waves Jordan forward. "After you."
