Everything inside Lukas wanted him to storm straight to the Fated Brotherhood, wherever they were, and tear them apart piece by piece.
But the rational part of his mind knew it was a lost cause.
First, he had no idea where to find their main hideout, or even a single isolated cell, and according to what Morgana had told him, the Le Fay forces were already carrying out an operation on the Brotherhood cells they'd discovered, including some members of their middle management.
He'd wanted to go along with the strike teams, but he couldn't leave Melody and Akira alone at this point in time.
He sat in a wooden chair, staring at the sleeping Melody in front of him. They were currently back in Salaria, resting in a quiet room at Lotus Hall.
Melody stirred on the bed, her eyelids fluttering open. Lukas rose from his seat and gently helped her sit up against the pillows.
"Water," she whispered, her throat dry.
