Dodging a beneficial proposal

Talia and Damon reached their room, each immersed in their own thoughts.

Talia plopped on the bed and stared at the ceiling.

Damon laid next to her sideways and propped his head on his elbow. He loved observing her in silence, but he knew that she had many things going on in her head.

Talia turned to look at him. "Why is Evanora avoiding to talk about a new portal?"

"If you noticed, why are you persistent?"

"She is dodging to discuss a proposal that's obviously beneficial for both sides. I want to know why."

Damon would love to know why also, but… "Sometimes we need to accept the rejection without understanding the reasons of the other side."

Talia puffed her cheeks in annoyance. Was Damon siding with the moody witch? No, that was not the case.

Or did Evanora want to swindle another shady deal? That was a possibility. 

Talia would be fine letting it go if it was not important.
