44 44. Partners of the Soul

In my mind, I gave myself a high five for immediately putting them on the defensive.

Ah, I feel like a clever cat who stole and ate a bowl of cream with catnip!

Bravo me!

Unfortunately, I underestimated my opponents...

Samael with the speed of an attacker snake decided to reverse our role.

He leaned over the table before I even noticed him make any movement and gently but firmly grabbed my chin, then gently kissed my lips, then still not letting go of me, he pulled back a little, then spoke up.

- We know that everything you do is for this that we may become discouraged and give up on you, but it will never happen.

He said it with something deep in his voice, then he let go of me, and sat down in his seat while I stared at him speechless.

Leonardo spoke before I could get back to reality from my momentary suspension of mind and say something.
