"Tessa, good news! The two hundred million is in- money's in the account!" So that guy had kept his word after all.
"Good. Now don't do anything like that again." Dream still wasn't strong enough to take on a dangerous drug lord by herself especially not one who specialized in creating that mutated variant of Soulrot Venom.
Dream rubbed her nose.
"Okay, okay, I got it. Don't worry! Next time, I'll just go in swinging!" Her shooting skills were solid, but in terms of pure hand-to-hand combat into wolf power-she still had a long way to go.
especially without tapping "By the way, where are you right now? If you haven't left Falindale yet, I was gonna take you out tonight- show you a good time!" Word had it that the most luxurious club in town had brought in sillusionist cat shifters. Business had been booming.

"Okay." After hanging up, Tessa walked back to Landon and held out her hand.
"Let's go. Didn't you say we were heading back to Navoris?" He still had plenty waiting for him there - if he delayed any longer, he'd only be more swamped when he got back.
"Are you done with everything here in Falindale? I can wait for you if you're not." It wasn't like he had to leave right away. Besides, the preparations for her birthday banquet in Navoris were just about finished.
"It's all handled. Nothing big left. You really didn't have to call the way here." She knew he probably wasn't here just for her - but/still, she couldn't help saying it.
