"yes, there are some... things that i-we should discuss. family things," she raised an eyebrow knowingly, halfway curious to see his response to those specific words. the words that likely gave away the fact that she was at least semi-knowledgable about the pact between their families. "i know it might be difficult to consider now, but i do think of you as a family member. another older brother, if you will. it's been difficult, for everyone involved, but i'm ready to take the steps necessary to putting this behind us," wren began quietly, observing his slow motions. he sat in the armchair, near the fire.
clearing her throat, she began again. "i met my father. and i'm under the impression that you are close with him, because i'm also aware of the agreement my father has with you and your predecessors," she said quietly, leaning in so that he could hear her a bit better. "so first thing's first. i need you to tell me what the fuck is going on and why victor was even involved." and there it was. that bitter, sharp-as-a-knife tongue, ready to rip out the throat of those who crossed her. the presence of eddie was difficult, much more than wren had expected. she was prepared to tear into him, but the solemn energy he brought to the meeting was enough to change the whole trajectory wren had planned for their conversation. but she was going to give him the chance to explain himself and bring light to a pitch-black situation.
