-MAGGIE POV-
I know I cringed. His eyes became preditary. I felt a tendril of thought pushing into my head, trying to find the answers. I blocked him, pouring all my awareness into the marble wall. I didn't want him to see the memories that were flooding my mind.
"Damn it Maggie! What aren't you telling me?" he asked when he realized that he wasn't getting in. His eyes searched mine.
I shook my head mutely.
He put his hands on my face. "Don't hide from me Princess." His eyes were sad.
But I couldn't tell him. I wouldn't walk that black road again, Steven had hurt me so much…I couldn't-wouldn't relive that.
"I can't tell you Delos, please it was a long time ago. And Stevey doesn't matter anymore." I whispered, one tiny tear streaked down my face. I reached up to wipe it away, but he beat me to it.
"Stevey?" he asked. "You use a cute nickname for someone who doesn't matter? Right Maggie, that makes so much sense." His sarcastic tone cracked like a whip, and I winced.
His face turned sorrowful and gentle. He touched my face softly. " I'm so sorry Princess, I won't push. But I wish you'd trust me."
I took a deep breath "He was my best friend for years, as much as brother to me as Miles was. But apparently friendship wasn't enough for Steven." My voice was monotone, my face was blank. I felt no emotion.
I laughed tonelessly, "Who was Steven you ask? He was my best friend who tried to kill me when I wouldn't kiss him."
Delos' face shut down. "He's dead." he said in a calm and calculated voice. "Maggie, pack your bags, we are visiting your parents. Go get Miles, I don't trust him in our house while we're away."
"But we don't have any bags, I was kidnapped by slave traders." I protested.
"Now."
I ran to find Miles. I found him in his little turret room. "Miles, we're visiting Mom and Dad."
He grinned. "I told you he was no better then Steven." He started to whistle because he thought I was leaving Delos.
"You're wrong Miles. Delos is coming with us, he wants to kill Steven." My brother stopped whistling and whirled on me.
"You're not going to let him are you?" he asked angrily, "He's your best friend."
My heart iced back over. "He tried to kill me Miles, I want to see him rot in hell forever." To my surprise I meant every word. I really wanted him dead.
Delos entered the room, "that's my girl." He hugged me from behind.
Miles snorted, "Fine, whatever Maggie, lets go kill your friend."
