After breakfast, Agatha escorted me back to my room like I was some delicate noble in need of immediate spa services.
She bathed me, brushed my fur until I looked like a luxury throw pillow, and was just about to finish when I leaned closer and whispered, "Gawang…"
She stiffened for half a second, then nodded like a soldier receiving classified orders. "I'll get him as fast as I can. For now, distract the master, my lady."
I nodded with all the confidence of someone who had absolutely no plan.
The moment she opened the door, Soren was already there.
Before I could even pretend to be busy licking my paw, he scooped me right out of Agatha's arms like I belonged there.
I twisted my head just in time to see Agatha already backing away.
'Traitor.'
I slowly turned my head back to Soren, already brainstorming ways to distract him.
Unfortunately, my brain clocked out the moment I actually looked at him.
I frowned. 'Does this man have no sense of fashion?'
