Chương 56: Chapter 56 - Elora takes an apprentice

Noticing Emma's pout and uneasy mood, Emily narrowed her eyes at Erik. "What did you say to Emma?"

Erik grinned mysteriously and wiggled his eyebrows. "Wouldn't you like to know?"

He knew it was risky to tease this woman, considering her tendency to lose control, but he just couldn't help himself. It was fun. Besides, she needed to learn control, and he was providing practice.

But Emily remained composed. Perhaps it was the earlier encounter or perhaps the happiness twinkling in Emma's eyes despite her pout. Either way, she simply snorted. "Fine. Don't tell me. We still need to find a way to prepare for future attacks."

Erik was surprised at her calm reaction but only felt his respect for her rise. Quick to anger, maybe, but also quick to adapt.
