Dizon sat in the booth that was in a dark corner of the small tavern with his four friends. Dizon, the leader of the group, was Termera's older brother. He downed his strong beverage, trying to dull the pain and anger of his sister being executed for plotting the murder of the human female, Aleigha.
He knew his sister wanted the human's mate. The human should have handed Merrick over to his sister since she was a more appropriate match because she was Ramesian and not a human.
"It isn't right!" Holg spa. "Humans are nothing. She should have been executed just for being one. They should not have executed Termera; she's one of us."
Holg was Dizon's friend. He was trying to be a good friend, siding with Dizon, or at least that was what Holg was thinking.
Krix poured his friend another strong beverage from the jug, then poured his own. Drizon promptly downed that one too.
