"You all watched this happen, and you would have let it happen. Shaful, really. The lot of you call yourself defenders, but what are you really protecting? Not this little girl here that her own mother was going to try and kill. I could sll the stink of her intent!" I roared, and the won sat back down.
"Let's just go. You are right, and we should just head back ho now," Eliza said, pulling on my arm.
I sighed but kept my face locked in disgust, turning from the group with my girls on each side. The two Vampires fell in line behind quietly, and no one on the entire top floor spoke until we left.
The inside was still lively, but everyone gave space as I headed down with my group and then out of the building. None of us talked, but that was to be expected, and we all headed back to Eliza's manor.
Once back inside the house, Eliza let out a long sigh.
"That was more exciting than I thought it was going to be. Nyala is going to be in a lot of trouble in the morning. I will be surprised if she is allowed to stay on. She would have been removed and put on trial if she had attacked Chili, so I can see her being sent back to Nine," Eliza said, and I nodded.
"Yes, and I am sure there will be soone coming to talk to about everything tomorrow and about Asha," I said.
"What do you plan on doing with ? Am I going to beco your sex slave?" Asha asked, and I laughed.
"No, you are going to learn manners, and then you can do whatever you want. The sa goes for Seraphina. I am not doing this to be an; I just truly dislike rude people. The first thing you both are going to learn is no one gives a shit what you think. If you dislike sothing, keep it to yourself unless it is sothing constructive. If I didn't ask you what you think of , I don't need to hear your opinion when you talk to , understand?" I asked, but both girls looked defiant.
"Oh, did you bring ho so friends? I already heard about the debacle over at Tilda's! Dear Chili! Are you alright? Cat-Folk are scary creatures at tis!" Lady Katarina exclaid as she ca out from a room down the hall.
"I am just a little shaken. I never thought that my… Nyala would act like that. I thought she cared about , but she was going to kill for sothing I had no control over. I am just lucky that Galio is who they are and stood up for . I had never seen any of them look as scared as they were when you were yelling at them," Chili explained, still holding my arm.
"I would have liked to see all those overly proud won be brought down a peg or two! Still, this is going to cause so waves," Lady Katarina explained, and I nodded.
"Whatever cos from this, send my way, and I will deal with it. I started this all, and I will be the one to end it. Now, is there any way we can maybe continue our party in the backyard with so drinks?" I asked, and Lady Katarina smiled.
"Of course! I would like to join as well if you all don't mind! I will get drinks brought out!" Lady Katarina exclaid, but there was a knock at the door behind us.
I turned back to the door and then to Katarina, but she shrugged. I turned back and opened the door.
Gwenth, Penny, O'lee, and the angel were all standing awkwardly, but so had tall bottles.
"Can I help you?" I asked.
"We would like to apologize for Nyala's behavior and our own. You were right, and it is disgraceful that we didn't stand up with you, but you are pretty fast! Still, the for of us really wanted to talk to you more!" Gwenth said to .
"Yes. You good person. Chili is a good girl. Nyala is stupid," O'lee said.
"Umm, I haven't gotten to talk to you yet, and, umm, I really want to!" Penny said shyly and then hid behind O'lee.
"My na is Breya, and I am what is called a Guardian Angel. I would have stopped Nyala if she had attacked. I have a skill that allows to shield others almost instantly. I respect your courage and would like to have a chance to speak with you," The Angel said, and I looked back at Eliza, who was grinning ear to ear.
"I suppose it is okay to let the girls in?" I asked, and Eliza nodded furiously, and I turned back, waving for them to co inside.
"Thank you! We were all worried that you might refuse us, but you are a very reasonable person," Gwenth said as she walked past .
"I just have a soft spot for people that have the nerve to co and explain themselves. I am not a spiteful person most of the ti, but Nyala pushed it too far with her comnt. I could have slowly learned to trust her again after her reaction since that is part of her culture. The childish comnt from a full-grown woman set my opinion of her in stone," I explained as the rest of the won entered.
"You would be surprised to know how many act like her. It is kind of sad sotis, but your reaction is the shared opinion of the four of us. That is why we choose to co," Breya explained.
"Well, at least I got to find out who I could trust and who is looking for so kind of fa. I was disgusted when Nyala talked of as though I was so prize, but there is no point dwelling on that. Let us go and continue with the drinking! Is there any way we can order food?" I asked, changing the topic.
