The hybrid turned his head back quickly as the strangest thing happened. Red’s eyes widened as the bird spoke to him. He blinked rapidly several times. It had not only spoken to him, but had spoke to him in Spanish. Perfect Spanish, even, Red knew a horrible half-way mix of the two languages and couldn’t speak either perfectly. He had never known a bird that could talk before. And it had moved the branch to drop leaves on him. ’Now she definitely knows I’m here.’
Red backed up along the branch as the female called out to him. He went down to a lower branch and then paused, looking over at the oddly color Luperci. She had spoken in English so he tried his best to do the same. ”How me know you don’t hurt me?” There was every chance in the world that the female would attack him the moment he came down. His hand strayed to the pouch hanging near his hip; he might just need his dagger very soon. |
