Aella was, as usual, humming to herself as she braided the hair between her horse’s ears. So far, she had successfully braided nearly the entire mane, starting at the bottom. Occasionally, without seeming to notice she was doing it, the girl would rub a hand on her head like she had a headache.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1Z9JMbznk
Luna had come out of cat form and was on Neoma’s horse, watching Aella braid. She blinked, mimicking her hand a few times, then turned to Neoma, poking her and repeating the motion. The other girl rolled her eyes. Aella looked over at them and grinned. “I can show you how to do it properly later, if you want,” she offered.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5FFoX4O37
Luna grinned and nodded. “Please?!”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiogAFSynoz
”It’s a plan!~” She glanced back to her horse, then swayed a moment, seeming to space out, eyes unfocused.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yX2FBwjdI
Neoma studied her for a few seconds, tilting her head. “You okay there?”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmrJzoeGUZ
She blinked and looked back over at Neoma. “Hmm? Yep, I’m alright.~” she said, returning to her normal cheery self.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVBqv5sBof
“Ah, okay.” She didn’t dig into it, looking ahead, then pointing.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjz8u0AUXML
“Are we at a town finally?” Aella asked excitedly, bouncing in the saddle and making her horse snort and toss its head. Neoma nodded slowly, keeping her eyes on the town ahead.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJnS2vgw86
“Oh, yay~” She settled back into her saddle, but still looked impatient to get there.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKq7oOPQKu
Neoma kicked the horse lightly to make it go faster, looking behind her to see if Aella followed. The blonde nudged her horse so it was even with Neoma’s, and she smirked, mumbling, “Brat.” She jolted her horse even farther. Aella started grinning, speeding up her horse again.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNAKoeSeTn
The two continued to urge the creatures faster. Neoma watched the town grow bigger and taller, the smell of sea salt burning her nose. Aella took a deep breath, her grin widening even further. Luna itched her nose at the scent, moving her hand over her nose.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuU6dsySdqk
Aella winced again suddenly, slowing down. Neoma looked back at her, pulling back to have her horse next to hers.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbT6zBoCC4P
Her eyes focused again after a second, and she shook her head. “My head hurts.” Neoma paused, grabbing a rope from the supplies and tying it on both mounts’ necks.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcTWxj8WtM
Aella gave her a curious look. “What’s that for?”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJY5NLj0FC
”So if you fall off, the horse won’t drag you.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0UrbNOWqr
“That would hurt.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jUhCjTe4d
“Yes, it would.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbhyut6BPo
Aella hummed, looking ahead.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9Uxq2kPfg
958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMRbfLnFEX
958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJv27ROeEH
958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpjIraBVMk
Neoma pulled a bit on the hood of her cloak, keeping out the light and the sight of anyone, no longer riding on her horse. Aella had dismounted as well, now walking with a bright smile. Neoma looked at the ground as she walked, and Luna was walking next to Aella, blabbering on about the forest around her home. The girl appeared to be listening quite well, aside from the occasional wince.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3mZIFodpf
“So, there’s a ton of animals and they’re all good for eating! But some of them are fast and hard to catch, and some are slower and even beginning hunters can catch them! And and…. oh, there’re more villages on the island, and they’re always fighting, and it wasn’t fun!” She purred a bit at that.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWAPDnoNtt
Wow.~ Did your village fight much, or were they nice and peaceful?” she asked curiously.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEmEsMi32z
“Uh, it depends!” She thought for a moment, then grinned. Aella tilted her head questioningly. “We were like a family I guess, but they didn’t like the other villages…”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXHi8fQ0PSn
”Oh…” She absentmindedly rubbed her forehead again, as she’d been doing increasingly often. Luna giggled and nodded, continuously rambling about her home. Before long, Aella suddenly stumbled to a halt with a pained expression.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnI9kxpdu8O
Luna jumped a bit, pushing her arms out to hold her up. “Are you alright!?”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ntUntdl8c
“Oww… My head really hurts now,” she said a bit distantly. “And the ring burns.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3p2CR8p0U
Neoma moved over, grabbing her wrist. “Come on.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQrNDtYqvk
“Mm..” Aella let Neoma lead her without protest.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISGN13moHS
She moved her into the shade, pressing a hand to her forehead. “How do you feel?”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOxFCK04rl
“Not good…” She closed her eyes, tipping her head back a bit. “Ow. Cináed’s upset.” Neoma walked over the horse, pulling out a fruit for the girl. She reached for it, but dropped it almost immediately with a wince, so Neoma just sat next to her, one of the shadows holding up the fruit. Luna came over, sitting down as well.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gpaLAMQtG
Without warning, the girl flinched and went stiff, then started tearing at her slender hand. Neoma jumped up, taking a few paces back. “Damn it,” she growled, and glared up at them. “I hate you. I really, really hate you.” As she spoke, the blue of her eyes seemed to leach out, leaving a bright, metallic silver.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1rDpl6bNE
Luna looked a bit hurt, but Neoma just… shrugged. “So, the shifter’s breaking through.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLxtfd4HGm
”What is this thing?” Cináed demanded. He had already shifted out of Aella’s form - not into the appearance they’d first seen him with, but a pale teenager with auburn hair. His irises remained their unnaturally bright color. Luna jumped back, her feet and hands dragging against the ground. 958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbhmckXIjs
"A silver ring," the elemental answered.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzcQDwlAn6
“And why can’t I take it off?” he growled.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvolsnYvY6h
She rose one of the shadows from the ground. “Reasons.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjUb65LiMc
”I want a straight answer.” His shoulders tensed up.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4997oaULB
” Well that sucks, because you aren’t getting one.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWV7QFWKl9
“And why’s that?”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡneGYfAPcnc
”Because, screw you. That’s why.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRX0Vgq9VkO
”Great response,” he muttered. “Witty.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf39lV480Ms
Luna licked her lips once or twice, her eyes darting from Neoma to the other boy - Cináed or something - then went back to ignoring the fight, sniffing at the air (it smelled weird in the city, like trash and things) and scratching her nails to the ground.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKZulTsRE5
Neoma crossed her arms. “I could come up with something better, but I don’t believe you deserve any brilliant backsass from me.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVs9UoTdqy6
He rolled his eyes at her. “You were a lot less of a bitch in Spain.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJ0gZxE4GK
“‘Till I found out you possessed some girl’s body,” Neoma grumbled, the shadow going liquid-like and plopping to the ground.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4a0HG1j9B
“What do you care about some random human?”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lQU5SP6Dd
“More like I don’t like the thing in her.” Suddenly her hands flipped palm up, causing shadows to pin his hands to the ground in almost a basket-like weave.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQwuBL5Cfh
”You seemed fine with shapeshifters when I first told you.” He snarled, trying to pull back.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlWALZDbHT
“Sure, I’m fine with the species in general, but most don’t have to possess people.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPOzRAwPaA
“Most,” Cináed muttered. This seemed to tick her off, and she pulled out the knife from before and pushed it near his neck. He leaned back. “Don’t.” She poked him with the tip, leaving a red mark, then returned it to its sheath. He hissed, his hands twitching.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkstI5dQQv
Luna tilted her head. “Neoma, that’s rude.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjdjE7oyiM
”S’ also rude to be an ass, but this guy’s first class in that.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VSAyqUYVS
Cináed growled again, trying to get free of the shadows. However, the shadows solidified as they got pulled, starting almost like rope. The more he pulled, the more they changed to a metallic feel. ”Damn it..” He stopped yanking on them, faint electrical sparks dancing across his hands in his irritation.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFFHrte5n5
Meanwhile, Neoma continued the petty argument with Luna, almost forgetting about the shifter before looking back at him and going, “Oh, right.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNzQOAPBvl
”So what the hell are you going to do, just sit here and let me be trapped all day?”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8M9w8pLqNd
”Shut up, I’m thinking.” She crossed her arms, looking at the shadows for a few seconds.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKaOk8OZHU
”Impressive,” he muttered.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnEQxIeRcm
”Screw yourself.” She glanced at him, then back to the shadows. “Yeah, we aren’t letting you go wander free.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSK8XSqg2z
”And why not?” he said sourly.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFp4D2lBxkL
”You have my ring~” She teased, then held her hands up. “And I can’t take it off you.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28xcS74qBB
”… seriously. Then who CAN take it off!?”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbibjuKv3Dd
“Aella”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlx7Wuv5trv
”FanTAStic. Fucking great.” He glared daggers at her. “So then what’re you gonna do with me, huh?”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbAAUPuKlL
Luna finally piped up. “Well, there’s the chance that: A. you pretty much leave her body by letting her take off the ring and then going, or B… um… we’re stuck with you!”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOg9oeLX543
”Ah, no.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lPVw9D0OQ
“… Then we’re stuck with you!!” Luna grinned, jumping up from her sitting position.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMa0Wzrucir
“… for how long, exactly?” 958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRKBCXPGQE
“Who knows?” Neoma smirked. “But the moment you try to run, let’s see how hot that silver gets.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtI7UYSf1hU
He growled under his breath. “If I’m stuck with you, at least tell me what this ring is meant for.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7HZXLa4AA
“Keep you in control.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmNo8ihQvg
”I doubt this was custom-made.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6q2TQPDls
“Not for you, but it’s a silver ring, and I guess it helps.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZJSUt0me0
”Better hope it doesn’t burn my finger off,” he grumbled. Sure enough, the skin around the ring was dark red.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzVquE3mDQ
”It might”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5TX2cgwVH
”You’ve gotta be kidding,” he growled. He attempted to pull it off again, hard enough that the nails of his other hand left bloody grooves on his light skin.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NdBrsxH1G
“Hey now, dont want to scar yoursefl”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidjSFhGmVu
“Shapeshifters don’t scar,” he grumbled.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvqpdA7msF
”Right, right.” She stepped up, not releasing his hands.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTMBBtRGgN
Cinaed automatically leaned back from her again. Finally, the shadows sunk around his fingers and into the ground. “‘Bout time,” he muttered, and stood, wobbling a bit. She grumbled a smartass comment and walked to the side. 958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmcnxrvdge
"Where ya going?" he asked, abruptly changing his tone from irritated to irritating.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlilJ3KOuuR
”Somewhere.” She pulled her hands inside the cloak, turning around.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gC5XDEzO0
”Oh, fascinating. I heard Somewhere’s nice this time of year.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjO5OX0qfBQ
”It is, actually, not too hot, not too cold.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkUy4KMZkR
”Pretty pleasant in all, not an awful amount of sunshine or rain.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsBsIq6sZD
”And you know, not too many people either.” 958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwnOO0JT1B
Luna looked between the two, then giggled.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuodHd38kS
”Excellent living conditions.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt56b9RZoI6
”Yes. Not too shabby of a building”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsR8i5BAwh
“Spacious, well-managed.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgeBzHUGnLu
“What are you two doing?!” Luna finally asked.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyWmHpmxBZ
Cináed glanced at Luna, then with an irritated expression said, “Nothing.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHkG7oBWQV
She ran a hand through her tangled hair, then looked at Luna. “Come on.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDkimKO5It
958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1O4FIAKsv
958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIpgSQy1Z5
Neoma sat on the edge of the bed, glaring at the male in the room. Cináed glared back, standing against one of the room’s walls. Luna looked between the two. “So….” When they ignored her, Luna bit her lip, sighing, and shrank down to her ocelot form and to jump up next to Neoma. 958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Fgb1nmuUJ
After another few seconds, Neoma piped up. “Okay.” He raised an eyebrow “Obviously, you’re going to be around for a while.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeE6MxFNzHR
“Yeah. And?”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOc7RMnLvX
“You need to be of some use.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgVRfQg7IT
His eyes narrowed. “I don’t NEED to be.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3X91scNPUd
“The faster we’re gone, the faster you’re out of my hair.” He continued glaring, waiting for her to continue. “So, you’re going to be buying stuff from now on.” She smirked a bit. “I mean, imagine what would happen if two girls got caught doing such!”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13HjeeqmU1
He gave her a flat look. “You’re kidding.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyj0ckEBcb
“‘Course not, and if we did get caught, all the time I would take to escape.” she made a ‘tch’ sound and shook her head. “Such wasted time it would be!”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPWMRcXMeQ
“Pretty sure you’re capable of shopping yourself,” he said sourly. “Unless you’ve always had a guy slave to do it for you.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZLM0HaqOq
“Of course we can, what do you think these are for?” She gestured to the heavy cloak.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CJdRQQlsC
“Then why don’t you use them?”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkexIoy7y3u
“There are some things we can’t buy in cloaks.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrDb3cOD7W
“Like?”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqDuOff0Ua
“For instance, clothing.” Neoma practically growled out that word, but she gave a smartass smile nonetheless. 958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJE3ndgJJqz
He growled. “Don’t see why it’s that big of a deal,” the shifter muttered. “And even if you don’t want to be caught buying clothes, you can get whatever else yourself.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3NXtV7V43
”Of course I can, but then there’s no fun in tormenting you.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYbbLwPGtz
”I am not gonna be your slave because you’re too lazy to buy stuff yourself.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7wbKv8GKd
“Nah, I don’t believe in slavery. I do believe in tormenting assholes.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4NNcpWj1m
“… You’re paying for all of this.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwyDAZTHSr
She dug through her pockets and threw a bag of coins at his head. “Naturally.” He caught it quickly and opened it to check the contents before leaving the room with an angry look. She laid back on the bed, looking up at the ceiling.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt727ZNxJcG
958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAWXYoXCaI
958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TkDnRMrqn
958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ab9uyFgkk
Cináed stepped back into the room and promptly dumped the food right on the bed, then threw the money bag at Neoma. She jolted up and glared at him, catching the bag before it hit her. “And a fuck you too.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTHGhrajEK
”Good enough for you?” he nearly spat.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQszRSvdm8
Luna looked at the food, then Neoma. “No meat?”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJ4YXsZgaN
”No meat.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5nSRFANGs
”Oh…”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIf9HQpbtj
Cináed huffed and sat down. Neoma threw a fruit at him. “Earth’s fruits are weird,” she commented. He considered throwing it back just to irritate her, but settled with just keeping it. 958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5RO29WwPw
She bit into one, still glaring at him. He glared back, passing it between his hands for a minute before finally taking a bite himself. Luna was taking huge bites and swallowing them whole, except for maybe pressing it to the roof of her mouth once or twice.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGYRUNLgIk
Luna glared at the fruit, mumbling how a nice rabbit or bird would be better than this. Meanwhile, the other two silently glared across the room. She finally finished her portion, looking at the bread and glaring again.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0ZVnGC7Mu
”Not a fan of varied diets, huh?” Cináed asked absently into the silence.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwB3CpBmmQ
”No.” She practically growled, gripping onto the bed.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXzRLRstkv
”Heh…” Cináed went back to glaring at Neoma, apparently disinterested in the conversation. Neoma stared back, biting into the fruit one last time to finish it. Cináed was still holding his own, not even half eaten, appearing to have forgotten about it. She threw it off to the side to throw away later and glared at him as she went to lay down. Cináed’s eyes followed her, still icy. She rolled over to face the wall, yawning as she did, while Cináed just remained sitting. Luna stared at him for a few seconds, then sunk down to cat form and laid next to Neoma.
958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDYoifwocU
Cináed had fallen into a light sleep, and was still dozing at sunrise. He woke up just after the sun came up, and glanced around with a yawn to see if the other two were already up. Luna was asleep, curled up in a tiny ball. Neoma on the other hand was over by the window, giving the sun a death glare958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaqGydcoK9
“You look like it insulted you personally,” he commented.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOt5K8G18hg
“It did, it rose and made the moon and stars die away,” she bitterly commented on that, looking back at him.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwv9JJM8D1p
He rolled his eyes. “They always come back, so why bother getting irritated over it?”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OcEX7Ae2d
”Because the sun, like you, is an asshole.” Neoma walked over to the bed, pressing her hand to Luna’s furry head.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5fS6bb9wv
”Tch…” He rolled his eyes again at her and sat up fully.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1sLh5gO8b
Luna lifted her head before sleepily lowering it again. Neoma cracked her knuckles, then got up and grabbed her cloak. “First thing is breakfast, then we get to have a marvelous trip to go get dresses.” She said the sentence in a grumble, and Luna jumped off the bed and shifted to human.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9o6V6OgPbD
“How great,” Cináed muttered.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ns7AnK7z1
“Don’t worry, I’m just as excited as you.” Neoma shrugged up her shoulders and crossed her arms. He sighed, still sitting. “Come on asshat, let’s get this over with.” She made to walk to the door. Luna grinned at him for a moment, then slowly followed.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ojfXQ1MTy
He shot a glare at Luna before slowly getting to his feet and walking after the two. Luna strayed behind a bit, staying somewhat near Cinead, but still within reach of Neoma. The shifter was reluctantly following, occasionally glancing at Luna with something between curiosity and a bit of confusion. She was humming softly, and despite practically jumping in her steps, her feet made no noise when hitting the ground.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPzVKDPj49
”So how long is this gonna take?” he asked, shifting his gaze to the back of Neoma’s head.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJGrR4V6Nu
”How the hell should I know?” A few people turned their heads to the girl to glare, but besides that, the small group was ignored.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vE0IF7yrq
”Haven’t you done this before?” he asked irritably.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBmss7PCDR
“Where we’re from, almost everyone has some sort of magic.” Luna fell behind to say this in a soft tone, glancing around to make sure no humans heard. “So it’s used for almost everything!”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqA9qFfLBzR
”Shapeshifters are like that too,” he said, dropping his voice as well. “I don’t shop. At all. Y’know, except when I’m forced to.” He added the last sentence under his breath, almost inaudibly.958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4emFrfJuW
Neoma nodded slowly, looking ahead for a minute then back at him. “So thievery?”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQz2BuZZ2de
“You bet.”958Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqD41pn5jrD
Neoma only grinned.
