"Where did you find her?" Athena asked Sandro as she and Ewan arrived at the parking lot.

Her eyes widened in incredulity when she saw her friend in the arms of a subdued Zane.

What the hell had happened?

She looked at Sandro for an explanation, aware that she wasn't the only one in this perplexing mix.
