Chapitre 413: Shenanigans

KALLE

They were almost back at the suite. Gahrye carried both bags of books and Kalle walked right behind him as they turned to swing up the stairs and go find Elia and show her—tell her what they'd learned!

But Shaw's voice echoed from the hallway downstairs behind them. "Kalle! Gahrye! Can I grab you for a minute?"

Gahrye turned to look at her, both of them hyper-aware of the books he carried, of what Shaw would do if he found out about them.

Kalle sighed and stopped walking. "You go check Elia," she said loud enough for Shaw to hear. "I'll catch up with him." Gahrye shot a dark look over his shoulder back, toward where Shaw must be standing, waiting, but he just nodded and turned, trotting up the stairs with his long legs in a way that made Kalle realize he must constantly shorten his stride for her, slow himself to match her.
