Chapter 35: 1.35 Punishment

Persie emerged from the walking closet and announced, "I'm done."

Cole looked at his empty hands and inquired, "Where are your clothes and toiletry bag?"

"I beamed everything to your room," Persie replied.

Otherwise, he would have had to carry his new riding clothes, boots, and toiletries. The two of them left, and Persie locked his bedroom.

As they walked, Cole brought up a topic. "A friend of mine will be having dinner with us on Monday."

While entering the elevator, Persie asked, "What is his name?"

Cole answered, "Her name is Astra Pericles. We've known each other since we were kids. Our families were close. She's excited that I'm finally back and wanted to meet as soon as possible."

Persie simply nodded, using Aurora to search for information about Astra. He ignored Iris' voice in his head when she remarked, "Doing your homework to get rid of her. Interesting."
