Eryx stood still for a few moments before stepping back and turning to leave the room.
"Eryx…" Regina called after him, hurrying to follow. But Eryx's strides were long and quick, his silence heavier than anything he could've said.
She stopped at the doorway, only then realizing, they hadn't been alone.
Everyone had been listening.
Naomi stood nearby, her expression a mix of shock and disbelief. Lunara was beside her, eyes wide as the pieces started to fall into place.
Naomi took a step toward the room and stopped at the threshold. "So… you pretended to lose your memories?" she asked, her gaze locked on Lucas, who stood frozen where he was.
Lunara, meanwhile, turned without a word. Her breath caught as realization dawned, and she rushed down the stairs, her only thought was to catch up to Eryx.
