Grief [3]

"Even if you are correct in your assumption...

I do not remember asking for your opinion on this matter."

Lloyd's voice was cold and cutting, and so were his words. The coldness in his eyes as he stared down the physically larger Rex made the entire room drop by several degrees.

The room grew darker by the second, yet when Rex finally stepped aside, the room returned to its prior lighting, no longer influenced by Lloyd's [Shadow Manipulation] ability.

As Lloyd left the room, he halted his steps and took a long side glance at Rex. It was not one of acknowledgment, nor was it one of curiosity... The action itself was a threat.

Turning around one last time, Lloyd silently walked out of the room.

"What was that?" Benjamin couldn't help but ask while turning to his wife, who seemed just as equally shocked as Lloyd's parents.
