It had been only a few days since the last t| was in her messy living room, and | felt like several lives had

"There might be sground to sue the Fullers," Lilith says with her usual rational tone, "I need to check with
my men-uhh, boss."
Boss? Men-what?
"Men-tor?" | glance at her in confusion, and she looks away with a bashful look, "Mentor for what-OMG Lilith! You
got into the law firm?!" | glance at Aurora, and she nods with a proud smile.
Lilith's whole face turns scarlet red: Til tell you about it later. Right now we are here for you!"
The street Lilith lives on is...well, let's just say, it's not a neighborhood that grows doctors or lawyers. It grows the

That's so great!"
Lilith buries her red face in my shoulder, and Aurora lets out a relieved laugh.
"Ahem," A fourth voice suddenly raised, "I think it might actually be her
hormones..."
Ohh... Yeah, that makes sense.
Wait?!
| shoot my head up, only to see Adrian sitting in the armchair, alone, all the way in the other corner of the living
room. Adrian?! "You-you are still here?!" | blink in shock.
"See?!" Aurora jumps up at my words as if it's sconditional
reflection, walking toward Adrian with a cold face, "I told you you should leave. She doesn't need you!"
Oops.
"Hmm-" | murmur after Aurora as she charges over like a fierce warrior.

Adrian the fox grins at her. I find that cute, but | doubt Aurora would at such a time. And surely enough, Aurora
clears her throat awkwardly, looking everywhere around Adrian but him: "Uhh--thanks, for saving Scar. That's
really..." She nods, hoping to brief through her reluctant praise of her nemesis. But Adrian wouldn't make it easy,
but just stare at her.
Aurora's ear tips turn red.
"...heroic!" She finishes, glancing atwith a plaintive look.
"I just did what any man would do," Adrian stands up and takes Aurora's hand for a light kiss on the back of it,
standing there and gazing at her.
Like an idiot.
