The fourth drabble in Keiro and Attia series. I think it'll fit where Blaize saves them from the monster and brings them to his tower.

He had come to check on Finn and found Attia sitting on the floor by his bed. It pissed him off.
"Don't you ever leave him alone? What do you think I'd do, stab him in his sleep?"
Her look was full of scorn. "I wouldn't put it past you."
Keiro's face twisted in anger. "He's my brother! I would never-"
"Please!" Attia cut him off as she stood up. "As if I don't know, you would have left him in that cave to die if Claudia hadn't-"
"Of course I wouldn't!" he scoffed. "Oath brothers watch each other's back, and anyway, what would you know? A dog-slave!"
A shadow passed over Attia's face. "I know enough," she said, her voice quiet. "Enough about Scum like you. It's in your eyes, you don't have to say anything. It is there when you look at Finn, all you see is opportunity. And your own benefit!"
Keiro gave her a seething look, turned and stomped out of the room.
