บท 666: Trouble On Her Doorstep

While Ginger and Prince Wayne strangely bonded, Ailee took the opportunity to comb Islinda's hair, the task having been delayed by the cat for a while. She was still in the process of untangling Islinda's locks when they heard a sudden commotion outside the door.

"What is going on?" Islinda's heart skipped a beat, her brows furrowed in concern.

"I have no idea, but it seems to be some squabbling. Perhaps I should check it…" Ailee was still speaking when the door was kicked open, startling them as they squeaked in surprise.

But that shock soon gave way to astonishment as Islinda's eyes grew wide when her gaze landed on her human friend.

"G-Gabbi?" she stammered, unable to believe her eyes.

Gabbi stood in the doorway, looking equally shocked to see Islinda, her expression a mix of relief and worry. She took a tentative step forward, her eyes scanning the room and the people in it. However, before she could reach Islinda, someone else beat her to it.
