I groan. "Okay, I hate to say this, but I'm hangry."
"So am I," Rowan agrees. "We could try to find a Fae city and get food."
"What kind of food do you guys eat?" I ask curiously.
His face gains a disconcerted look. "Wait, you can't eat it."
"Why?" I'm confused.
"Do you want to cannibalism?"
"Gross!" I make a face. "You actually eat humans?"
So that lady we met at the beginning wasn't fucking around at all.
"No, I was kidding," Rowan laughs.
Okay, so maybe she wasn't?
"Thank god," I whisper. "You almost had me traumatized."
"We have like normal human food, but it's just... better."
Normal... human food?
"Will it beat the peanut butter in the pasta?" I grin instead of voicing my thoughts.
"Anything will beat that crap," he snorts.
"Was it that bad?" I ask.
"Yes. You have no idea. You didn't even try the pasta with the cream cheese, so Cassian ate it."
"Did the cream cheese and pasta taste good, though?" I inquire, laying on my stomach.
"He said it was good, but I'm pretty sure he was messing with me."
"Ah. I wonder what it tasted like."
"Well, you would know, had you not gone and gotten your throat slit open," he points out.
"Fair point," I say.
"Please don't do it again," he sighs.
"I make no promises," I retort, throwing his words right back at him.
"That's my line; you stole my line," Rowan pouts like a child.
"Well, it's mine now," I pout back. "Fite me."
"Is that a challenge?" he grins, propping himself up on an elbow.
"Oh, shit, no, please don't," I plead. "I'm going to lose."
"Okay," he says.
"Hey, don't you think it's weird that we've been here for four days and no one's tried to turn us into blood-air?"
"They aren't going to bother us," he says firmly.
"I wouldn't be so sure of that," a female voice comes that isn't threatening or menacing at all, and we look up to see a tall woman with dark brown hair and pine-green eyes step into the light.
"Who are you?" I ask. "What do you want?"
"Nothing, really. But Rowan should recognize me," she says.
