Chapter 1
Back to Business
As I bent down putting the fresh garlic bread into the oven I had to smile and shake my head. Just nine weeks ago I had been doing the exact same thing at home, well at James’s house. There was just something about a home cooked meal that I found comforting, especially when it was spaghetti and fresh garlic bread. Not meatballs, I never served my sauce with meatball. It wasn't that I had something against meat. I was a definitely a carnivore, but I had to respect my housemates. Nymphs weren't particularly fond of meat, and all the Allazeis were different.
It all depended on what animal he changed to. For example Sheila and Rania both transformed into songbirds. So it really wasn't that surprising that they were vegans. Never offer them eggs unless you want to attacked by a bunch of bluebirds. On the other hand as a panther, Michael, was pro meat. That’s way all my meals contained side dishes one for carnivores and one vegans.
“Knew I would find you here,” a soft gentle voice stated from behind me. I rose to meet Lillian’s soft green gaze. Nothing had changed in the past six months she looked the same as always; she still looked like the embodiment of a nice spring day. Her skin was as pale and fragile looking as the coulds on a warm spring day. Her face was delicate with a small button nose, wide grass green doe eyes, and constant smile that made her the picture of innocence. Her face was framed by a golden bob, but unlike human she had some unique highlight particular to dryads. Such as blue, lilac, orange, and a deep red like that of a wild rose. Looking into those meadow-green eyes anyone would believe she was a daughter of the forest.
“Yes, I would think it would be pretty obvious for most people to figure out. So, I left you and Rose in charge is there anything you need to inform me about?” I asked setting a plate of fruit in front of her. It was more of a test then a real question seeing as nothing happened within my house that I was not aware of even if I didn’t happen to be there.
