"Why don't you just let him in? It's his sister. It's only natural that he would want to look for her." Maxine ranted.

Zion and the others glanced at the cousins who were starting to argue. Zion didn't say a word and let Amaris handle Maxine's tantrums.

Amaris sighed deeply. From her expression, they knew that she was trying to be calm.
