"Hm." Megara's father thought for a long moment, took a few bites of his food. Finally, he locked his gaze on Megara, "Did you teach this boy to lie?" he asked evenly.
She met his eyes once again, "Why do you believe he's lying?" she countered. It was a weak counter, and it wouldn't hold up for a second, but it bought time.
"There is no wealthy family under the name Wayne. I am disappointed, Megara. I would have thought that you would be a better teacher than you are a student."
She didn't falter. "Are you quite finished playing games?"
He looked amused, "Games?"
"Where's Eddie?" she demanded, her even tone slipping a bit to reveal her anger beneath it.
Briar gave her a warning look. The poison. Megara controlled her breathing, taking her pulse under the table. One, two, three, four...
Briar was so dead after this was all over.
