Opening the door, I found the panther before me with half-wet fur, apparently freshly showered. There was an energetic shimmer in his eyes as he grinned.
"Ready for the raid?"
Again joining him and smiling involuntarily, I nodded while looking away.
"Yeah, ready."
Jude led me to the ground floor. Going in the direction of the back of the house, we tried a few doors, until we found a vacuum cleaner.
"You think they would hear me use it?" I asked quietly as I looked at the high-end vacuum model in a little chamber, everything sorted in order inside. The surrounding darkness was invaded by Jude's flashlight.
"They won't. The subordinates sleep in another part of the house." He answered equally quiet, which should be unnecessary, but a raid should be in the dark, and it should be done quietly, so I didn't speak up.
