Chapter 451 Homecoming (3)

As Volos looked at Lyra, his astonishment was evident on his face. But after nearly a minute he recomposed himself and said, "I always knew that you would be back one day Jadzia. When I heard you had joined the rebellion, I was certain that you would come to reclaim your home. Though I did not expect you to be here so soon."

Volos then turned his head in the direction of where his wife and kids were asleep and said, "I understand that you are going to kill me. But I would beg you to spare my wife and kids. They are innocent in this all and have been dragged into this by me."

However, as Volos said this Lyra rolled her eyes and responded saying, "There is no need to be so dramatic. I have not come here to kill you but ask for your help. Though if you make things difficult, I will be forced to take action."

Hearing this Volos' face brightened up since in al honesty he thought Lyra had come back to execute him as revenge for her parents whose place he had taken.
