Chương 65: Hiss Like A Cat

Once I ducked out the door, Wispy stood up from where she was sitting on the step. The girl looked lost, and I couldn't blame her, but I wasn't here to coddle her.

"Ready to go?" I asked, and Wispy nodded, putting her arms up.

It was hard not to look at her like a child like this, even though I knew she was a full-grown woman. Or at least that was what I was assuming as I picked her up and sat her behind my neck.

"How old are you?" I asked as I started to walk back to the barracks.

"Sixty-two this year; why? How old are you?" Wispy asked, and I chuckled.

"Twenty-something, but I feel a lot older than you," I chuckled as I turned the corner.

"Why are we going back to the barracks?" Wispy asked, and I could hear the tension in her voice.

"To go pick up two bratty angels and then home to make something to eat," I said as we got closer.
