"Another great performance tonight." Jacob smiled widely as he engulfed Zande in a hug. "You did wonderfully well, cara mia. You were like an angel of light bestowing goodness upon the people who had come to forget their sorrows that had bessetted them during the day, and relax just for the moment and perhaps for the rest of the night. Your songs inspires hope in people and that says something beautiful about you. I am so proud of you." he muttered into her ears, softly biting the soft lobe, promising her of rewards that were to come that night, not minding that Amia and Prest were watching him ,even though their forms were that of leopards.
No wonder he had failed whilst trying to get past their mind guards the last time they had fought. They weren't natural leopards!
