Skye kept a curt smile on her face as she spoke; "Ima not a mouse, ye house cat.. Why have ye been avoiding me?"
Shasta laughed haughtily; "Because I don't want to be around you."
Skye took a cleansing breath; "Well, it's not like I wanna be around you either. Not with that kind of attitude, but this was a direct order from the king. If I don't train with ye, we both get yelled at.. And You get the added bonus of gettin' yer cream taken away."
Shasta bent her ears back in frustration. She knew the princess was right. Magnus had specifically told her she'd be cut off if she didn't train Skye. Due to it, the princess wasn't the only one she'd been avoiding. The king had summoned her that morning, but she hadn't gone to see him yet.
