He didn't care about Kelly's injured leg, and didn't even ask about it. His first reaction was to question the man standing beside her, the one who made him feel threatened.
"Who are you?"" Zev countered, his tone indifferent.
He was tall- so tall that he seemed to envelop Kelly entirely, radiating a quiet sense of security that was hard to put into words At six feet two, Zey towered over Kelly, who was only five feet four. She had always been wary of men this tall. Eric wasn't short either, standing at six feet, but next to Zev, his presence suddenly felt much weaker.
"I'm her husband," Eric said with a frown, reaching for Kelly's hand.

If this situation escalates, it won't end well for you. We can't win against them. If they turn on you, you'll have nothing to gain- only madness and destruction. He thought he was protecting her.
Kelly had no family left. No one to stand by her side, no one to shield her from the forces pressing down on her.
If those people decided to crush her, she wouldn't stand a chance.
Kelly gripped Zev's shirt even tighter, her head hanging low as her body trembled Eric wasn't wrong-she was alone.
"Who says she's alone? Zev sneered. "Are you blind? Can't you see I'm standing right here? With that, he pulled Kelly closer into his arms. "And as for taking her with you- sort out your own mess first. Otherwise, you have no right to even speak."

"Kelly, get in the car," Zev murmured. "Kelly-"Eric grew anxious and moved to stop her. "Kelly, you just got back. Where did you even meet these people? Look at them- they're obviously dangerous!

Finished Zey clenched his fists. He had been planning to beat Eric to a pulp before leaving, but now that Gary was here, that probably wasn't an option.
So instead, he grabbed Eric by the collar. "Lucky for you today. Next time, you won't be." With that, he shoved Eric backward.
Eric stumbled, barely managing to keep his balance, his face twisting with anger. "Kelly!" But Kelly didn't look back. She sat stiffly in the car, pressing herself against the door as if trying to put as much distance as possible between herself and Zev.
"Kelly, you really have no heart," Zev muttered as he slumped into the seat. His brows furrowed, his face turning pale- he had been forcing himself to stay upright this whole time.
Taking a deep breath, he clutched his chest, clearly in pain.

Zev's eyes w were tinged with red from the pain as he looked athem weakly. "Kelly why don't you just sit on the roof? Am I really that scary!" Kelly nodded. She thought Zev was terrifying.
