Oliver administered an IV to Maya while the pilot flew them back home. Maya was lying up straight in one of the sleeper seats on the private jet.

Dalton gritted his teeth. "Uh…" They had been caught in a lie. Dalton wished Oliver were more like his twin brother. They never had to hide the ugly things they indulged in from River because it didn't faze him. But Oliver was like an egg that needed to be treated special, or he would have a breakdown.
