I mean, obviously, Jude has a new boyfriend.

Maybe she doesn't want to come back?

Maybe she doesn't love me anymore?

Maybe she didn't even love me in the first place?

Maybe... it'll be better off like this?

Jude is a mortal, after all. And mortals belong in the mortal world.

Content with my idea, I spring up and start to sprint back towards the Palace-

But wait...

 The Bomb and the Roach.

They will be a problem.

                             ***

"YOU TRAITOR!" the Bomb screeches as she's thrown into a cell, alongside the Roach.

I twist my fingers together so hard I think they may come out. "You have carpeted floors, a bathroom, good food, a couple of books and a bed each. The only con here are the bars!" I shrug, I made sure that they'd be comfortable before I threw them in prison.

"The only con here is the stench of you, a traitor to your own wife's court!" the Roach spits at my feet.

Feeling frustrated, I angrily turn away, nose in the air and hurry back upstairs.
