I wasn't expecting much of a difference, but this thing had gained four levels since I'd seen it last – and it wasn't that long ago. My paranoia intensified.

It hadn't joined my pit like the lizard, so why on earth was it following me? 

Infact, it didn't seem to belong to any group at all! And this was the most suspicious thing of all.

I'd seen a creature similar to it before, but now I wasn't so sure. Those felines were moving in packs, so why wasn't this one with them?

Its fur was un-matted and fluffy, like something that was cleaned regularly. I knew cats were naturally clean creatures, but my alarm bells were ringing. There was no way something this small didn't have a pack or something else protecting it, and this was probably why it was so careless.

Either way, I didn't want to get involved.

The dark fae refused to leave it. She was sitting casually on its fur with her arms crossed and glaring at me.
