Notes: This is the 14th story in my House of Sulfur and Mercury series and ends the branch in which Luke is Merlin's prisoner and they end up having kids. This is a direct follow up to "Welcome and Unwelcome Both."

The rating is for themes and things implied.

Summary: “Dad thought I was joking,” Gale went on, “when I offered to help him leave. No--” Za hesitated, considering. “No. He just thought I was offering something I didn’t understand and couldn’t do.”

My throat went dry. The idea of losing Luke was more terrifying than any part of the conversation that had come before it. I hoped that za didn’t mean it, that za hadn’t already done it. Silently, I queried Ghostwheel.

Ghostwheel didn’t answer.
