"Cute?" Chiron looked at Kace incredulously. Never had he ever heard anybody say that kind of word, except Hope. She was the only person who would say such a word. But it seemed that Hope's use of vocabulary had affected Kace's as well.
Ignoring Chiron's protest, Kace's attention was on Raine. To think that the girl, who was hiding behind his back was his cold and aloof brother's mate, didn't seem right. How Torak could handle someone so fragile like her? It even surprised Kace that the girl bore Torak's mark.
Meanwhile, it was the first time for Raine to see centaurs. Never had she ever imagined to see centaurs in real life, she didn't even know if they were real, of course until now. Torak had never mentioned them. Raine clenched Kace's shirt even tighter when they approached her. She was blown away, and lost for words the moment when one of the centaurs talked.
Oh now they could talk too!? And they sound just like humans!—she thought to herself.
