I stood up taller. “I’m very dignified.” I turned to Nero so he could back me up.
“You’re the most dignified Angel of Chaos I’ve ever met,” he said silkily.
Ivy was laughing so hard, she started choking again. Nerissa slapped her on the back, her expression amused. But that good mood soured the moment her eyes fell upon the many half-eaten cakes on the table.
“Leda, I do hope you’re eating more than cake,” Nerissa said, her face stern.
“I sure am. I’m eating lots of ice cream too.”
“Have you at least been taking the vitamins I gave you?” Her voice was strained.
“They make me queasy.”
Nerissa sighed, then shot me a long-suffering look.
“Dr. Harding, you need to order her some gummy bear vitamins,” Nero told her.
Her forehead crinkled in confusion. “Gummy bear vitamins?”
“Don’t listen to him,” I said quickly.
Nerissa didn’t say anything more on the matter, but I could tell the wheels of her mind were turning as she tried to figure out how to get more of those unappetizing prenatal vitamins into my body.
“So, you’re free, Zane,” I said after Ivy and Nerissa left my suite. “What do you want to do now?”
“I’d really like to go home,” he said solemnly.
“Great idea. Nero and I will join you. Bella is home from New York. And Gin and Tessa are there, of course. We can all be together again. Can you imagine how epic that will be, after all this time? Calli has been nagging me to visit for dinner, and tonight I will.” I wrapped my arm around my brother. “And I’ll come with the best present ever: our beloved Zane is back.”
