"Impossible...that's not true...how...how could this be?" Lael looked at Ainsley with a blank gaze.
He kept muttering 'impossible, impossible', not wanting to admit whatever the young monster tamer just said.
How could a wild monster act so tame around a human?
Even if the human were a monster tamer strong enough to tame it, without making a contract, it wouldn't willingly follow the human.
It would simply choose to run to avoid being enslaved as a contract monster.
But this baby? She didn't make a contract with the monster...but the monster followed her around as if it was her contracted monster?
Is the monster a bootlicker or what?! Or is it a different case with a mutant monster?
Lael would rather believe that a mutant monster might act differently than other non-mutant monsters.
He would believe anything as long as it didn't show off the baby's mysterious might!
