The second class was extra surprised to see that the Captain of their Guild was wrapped around his pair like a koala when they entered into the conference room for class. Kellen couldn't blame them.
Brent was barely keeping it together himself.
Cass had tried to keep things respectable, but the Captain had made up his mind. He wasn't going to leave Kellen's side today, and that meant that instead of using his cane, Rhys had insisted that Kellen use him instead.
It was a ridiculous proposition. They couldn't hold the same function, but Kellen knew better than to argue with him when the Captain got that glint in his eyes, and that warning bell rang in the back of his mind.
So, he shut his mouth, and let Rhys cling to him like a leech while Kellen went about ignoring him as he taught the class. The Guides were having a harder time keeping their thoughts focused, and Kellen couldn't blame them.
