"We thought something bad had happened to you," Ije said when she saw us "we were preparing to mount out a search for you."
"We here now, aren't we?" I smiled at the concerned females.
"Oh my gods!" Elit placed a hand on her mouth " You two look different, " she walked closer to them , but a growl of anger from them stopped her from further progressing towards us.
"How different do they look?" I raised a brow at her.
"They look a bit human. Their eyes are the only thing that showed they're not human."
She made the observation of something I overlooked when I thought dying their hair can make them human.
"How do you explain their different eye colours?" she looked at me in question.
" It's simple actually. We will say they were the disciples of the great wizards who live high up the mountains..
They're the products of a spell gone wrong. We found them on our trip down the mountain where we lived with our priestess.
They were cast out of their sect Because of the oddness of their eyes. Their leader who was the one who made them this way doesn't want to be reminded of his mistakes whenever he sees them
He's afraid how people will think him powerless. " One of the girls said.
" Superb!" I smiled at her " you gave us the right story for them."
" I never did peg you as one capable of saying something as wise as this Star," Elit smiled at the girl who looked down on the floor in embarrassment.
Only when she lowered her head did I identify her as the girl who likes looking down whenever she talks.
"I guess I read a lot that's why," she answer shyly.
" Now we've gotten a cover story for them, let's proceed to the town. The earlier we go there, the more time we will have to learn things about them before nightfall, and don't forget, we still don't Know if those natives have told anyone about us yet."
" Are you good to travel?" Reddy looked at me on question.
" You can always carry my Lazy self. Why bother to walk when I have you and Black Blondie to carry me yo wherever I want to be?" I smiled.
" Black Blondie? why will you call me that?" Blondie looked really confused at the name.
" You're no longer a pure Blonde wolf. You're now a black Blondie."
It's a pity I won't get to see his almost white hair, neither will I see Reddy's fiery red hair.
" I guess Black Reddy's temper will lessen a bit. His hair that makes him fiery isn't as red as it was before."
" Shut up," Reddy glared at Blondie before squatting in front of me " get on my back." He commands.
"i have legs to walk with, why should I get on your back?" i raised my brows so high up it might have reached the skies of I tried "you don't have to treat me like glass."
