The Beast Master
Emma stared at Therius and Marlowe alternately. She did not expect that these two men knew each other.
"You ... know him?" she asked.
"This is my old school mate," Therius explained.
Marlowe looked at Emma in surprise. He felt that something had changed in Therius. This man was unlike the Therius he had known at the academy.
It seemed Therius had become more expressive and ... happy?
As long as he remembered, Therius was aloof and didn't talk much. He was the opposite of his best friend, Xion, who was warm as the sun and loved talking. The two were famous for being so different, like heaven and earth, but became the best of friends.
But now, Therius looked so warm to the girl beside him. And, oh .. Marlowe just noticed that the two looked very similar. Was this girl Therius' sister?
