Olivia stepped closer, a trace of amusement in her expression. She had watched the whole confrontation without saying a word while the elder was there, but there was something about the way Alex had handled himself that she found particularly satisfying. In fact, she'd been just about to tell him how sexy he'd looked telling the elder to piss off.
Before she could get the words out, Alex's eyes widened.
Olivia's smile faded. "What's wrong?"

His mind had finally connected several pieces he'd been turning over separately, and the conclusion made him feel rather foolish. He looked at Olivia, then at the spot where Aeron had disappeared, and a bitter smile crossed his face.
"These guys are all here for Sylas, not me."
Olivia frowned. "What do you mean?"
Alex let out a breath, his gaze growing more serious.
