章節 60: The guilty conscious part 2

"Show yourself" Mark watched the bushes cautiously, waiting for something to jump up and assault him. It was more than evident that something was in the bushes waiting to jump them at any moment's notice.

But when nothing happened for some time, Mark found himself tense even more.

Kuro was also letting out small growls, her mood, not one to be messed with. Already, Mark could feel her ready to burst forth and attack the intruder. And when the bushes finally parted, Mark had to stop the kitten from attacking the small form of a human girl.

"Mr Mark, I'm sorry to disturb you but I wanted to see the pretty kitty once again" Maya's voice was cheerful, lacking any sense of danger at all.

Behind her, En seemed to look on in a bad mood but even he did not interrupt which Mark took as the signal that everything was alright for now.

"Maya, I don't think the kitten is in the mood" Mark tried once again, his voice leaving no room for questioning at all.
