Lola and McSuile Siblings

"Alright, Lola. Now that you've spoken to your family and your uncle has confirmed we're not bad people and mean you no harm, go ahead and get some rest in the guest bedroom," Janice instructed gently. "That way, you'll be refreshed and ready to meet your parents when they get here."

Despite her bravery and composed demeanor, the events of the night were overwhelming. Being abducted by a semi-naked man and flown to a city apartment at supernatural speed was terrifying—especially for a mortal with no knowledge of the 'World of Curses.'

"Yes, thank you, ma'am," Lola replied politely knowing the latter were helping her. Most of the misunderstandings had been cleared up, but one question still lingered. "Ma'am, why did your brother bring me here? Couldn't he have just talked to me and my parents there and saved all this trouble?"
