It wasn't just Ankhur, Enkai, Amina, and Nadia who were looking at the wild shapeshifter with blinking eyes. Along with them, there was an older couple, and a tall, mature woman, all three of whom possessed the same bronze-coloured skin as Ankhur.
As if on cue, they all started smiling gently as soon as they recognized the werepanther who just stormed in.
"Little Naeku…" Ankhur smiled as relief practically flowed out of his eyes. Yet, the relief quickly made way for mischief as he sighed and relaxed even more into his pillows. "I suppose that means… I can rest now…" he whispered softly as he pretended to slip away.
