SECRETS IN THE SHADOWS

Ambrosia and Talon sit there for moments without saying a word to Nikolas. They think that he is lying about what he had just said, they do not believe him at all. They are in disbelief that he knows where Drusilla is. Ambrosia just sits there shaking her head back and forth and Talon sits there staring at the wall as if his body had frozen.


Nikolas looks back and forth at the two of them.


"Ambrosia, I am sorry about this, I hated to keep this from you. When I first met you, I instantly fell in love with you." Nikolas said.


Ambrosia sits there quietly and does not respond to Nikolas.


"Please say something, please!" Nikolas whispers to Ambrosia.


"I don't believe you. I think you're lying to us right now!" Ambrosia replied.


"I'm not lying to you, I swear!" Nikolas said.
