Gently she went to take the girl's hand and nodded to Patrick to let the halo go. "This is strange, I know. It's going to get weirder. I'm a Muse. And there's things, beings, you need to be aware of. There is danger here."
She moved closer, "Well start with my side. I'm going to show you what my father looks like, and I need you to promise me to never, under any circumstances, be alone with him. Be in public or go away. And I know this is scary to hear, but I'm going to have this conversation with Ella too. He doesn't care if you're related to me. You're a very pretty girl, and he'll hurt you. Or Hera will."
