She immediately jumps up, staying away from the bars but close enough to see Zeke. "Can he come in?" She asks Caspian. Caspian glances at Zeke then at her, slowly starting to become suspicious. He nods reluctantly, a guard tosses Zeke the key. Caspian grabs hold of Zekes shoulder, "Stay far enough away from her that you can get out... I dont trust her. Be careful." He whispers before backing up next to Lucia.

Zeke nodded, but unlike Cas, he completely trusted her. He thought she had changed for the better. He then walked inside before closing the door and locking up and turning to Winter. *so. You gonna eat?* he asked kindly.

She narrows her eyes, watching winter.

Winter stares at him for a moment before reaching out for his hand.

Caspian watches them closely, tense.

Zeke tossed the key out of the cell to Cas in case she was trying something before taking her hand, smiling happily.

she holds back a growl.

She grabs his hand before spinning around, his back to her, her claws already out and against his throat. "Try anything and your throat opens like a fountain." She hisses to them, "Now let. me. out." She snarls, the guards are already in front of Caspian and Lucia, shifted with their claws ready. The men in the other sides look shocked.

Zeke blinked, shocked, before closing his eyes and letting tears fall. Of course she didnt change. She wouldnt for a long time. He whispered, *do it. You wont be my mate. I have nothing else to live for. I love you. You dont love me.*

(His heart just got pulverized.)

Lucia didn't move and glared at Winter.

She digs her claws into his neck, "Shut up."

Caspian moves forward. "And where will you go? Hes dead! You have nothing back there. Stay with us, get to know Zeke! We can take care of you." He says, eyes never leaving Winters. She stares at him before glancing at Zeke, her hold on his throat loosening slightly. She frowns, looking at Lucia before looking back at Caspian. She quickly shakes her head, "No! Let me go!"
