Please, Help Us!

(Tom's PoV)

I looked at the man Siji brought into the house. I didn't bother to hide my displeasure as I sat on the chair like a boss with my eyes shooting chilly gaze. Sitting beside me was Jane, fully dressed and if she were so passionate about getting pummeled just several minutes ago, she didn't show it. Her face returned to the serious mask she would put on every time she would deal with something important.

Damn! Right in a crucial time, Siji told her that he got some lead about the army from before.

Therefore, she requested to help her got dressed and refused any advancement towards her. I nearly broke the bed in my frustration. Since I couldn't get anything, I might as well follow her and listen to the 'lead' Siji got for her.

The man was not a human. I wasn't surprised at that fact. However, the way he carried himself was so full of dignity that I was wondering how Siji could ask him to come here.
