"A food mart?" Lorcan's eyes widened. Only a small amount of self control stopped him from snatching the other fruits out of Rose's hands and throwing them away. "Are you certain the food hasn't been contaminated? Has anyone been sick? Have you been sick?" He wouldn't trust food from the gnomes. Especially not when it looked so weird. Intriguing, but weird and definitely suspicious.
"I may have to insist upon testing these strange fruits first. Knowing the gnomes, they may be poisonous," Lorcan warned her. He would hate to let any harm come to pass Rose. No, the right thing to do would be to die or fall terribly ill as a warning example for her. And the others, of course.
