Chapter 88

“Aria! What are you doing here?” I managed as she crossed her arms, turning her glare at me.

“One, I thought I told you to stay home. Two, I suspected Ashe would pull something like this and try to get you involved. Let’s just say that I’m one step ahead of her, and I very much don’t appreciate her pulling a stunt like that.” She was so serious and bitter. Wait, her?

“You mean he right? Ashe is a boy,” I blurted out as the entire tavern watched Aria’s expression soften, surprised at the change of topic.

“She? She.” The two of us looked at the mischievous Pact Mage as he shrugged.

“Whatever you want me to be!” He had this crackling laugh that made him sound like a fox, which did not help us at all. At least it helped soften the mood.

“Regardless.” She cleared her throat as she turned to address the tavern.
