Before Serval can add more details in her story a knock outside from her shop suddenly interrupts the conversation.
"I forgot! My little brother will drop by my shop today, everyone hide I'll handle him first." Her eyes are slightly widened and she is panicking.
We all nodded at Serval and went behind the counter, but the space was too small for 5 people. My back was touching the wall while Caelus was pressed against me because Seele, March, and Dan Heng were hiding carefully and not letting our shadows be seen.
I heard the door open and heard a male voice, no doubt it's really Gepard the captain of Silvermane guards.
"Gepard! you're here early! How's your job at the front line?" Serval's anxiety was visible in her voice but she was trying hard to put on a cheery voice to hide it.
"I just arrived on time, sister... You're a bit strange... Did something happened.?" Gepard went straight on the point as he asked her sister, making her more nervous.
"Nothing happened! Also what's with the silvermane guards outside the city? It's quite numerous..." Her voice was panicking at his question but suddenly regained her composure when she asked a question to change the topic.
"It was assigned by the Supreme Guardian herself because of those outsiders." Serval just shakes her head and sighs.
"Just what crime did they commit now?"
"About that... I was asked to remain silent." Gepard lowered her head as she responded to her sister.
I quietly sighed in relief after hearing their conversation going smoothly since Serval was not showing any nervousness in her voice but suddenly I noticed how the five of us are pressed too much to fit in such a cramped place. The position was me, Caelus, March, Seele and Dan Heng.
My body is tightly pressed against Caelus and I can feel how rock hard his body was, he feels like he has a good physique under his clothes. I was panicking slightly at our position and raised my head to see Caelus and there he is closing his eyes tight shut, his breath is uneven and shallow with his face so red. He notices my gaze at him as I look at him with a flustered face.
I felt an arm snaking around my waist and his hands went to block my eyes. His voice was shaking as he whispered.
"Don't look at me like that, I'm already blushing."
His hot breath was brushing on my ears since he's not used to my soft body that was touching his body. My face is starting to get red in our position but there's nothing I can do since we can't afford being caught now.
